Located at 22 East 49th Street in Midtown Manhattan, we teach all classical jewelry techniques in every class.

We have a teacher for every five or six students so the student receives a lot of attention. If a student were to complete all of the many projects we have developed, he/she would end up with a complete background of classical jewelry techniques.
