For this tutorial you will have done the
Step by Step Making a Basic Panel Ring that I taught previously. I am going to show
you how to make a few decorative changes that will alter the design of the blank Panel Ring you made and how to
incorporate a gemstone into your basic panel design. Also in this Jewelry Making Tutorial I will do a step by step
illustration of how to make a rectangle bezel for the gemstone. This is but one example of changes that can be made to
your basic panel shape. Let creativity flow and see what other designs you can come up with. These rings are an industry
standard in many different shapes and sizes. These days it is easy to pick up the phone and order one to size from a
supply company, but see how you can stamp your own mark by changing the design. Again, in this tutorial it is assumed
that you are familiar with basic goldsmithing techniques.
