Saddle-Set Hinged Earring Kits

If you’re taking my class with Silvera and looking for a kit you’ve come to the right place. Each kit has everything you’ll need to make the project including a cabochon and drilled paddles, 22k gold bezel, sterling silver sheet and silver solder.
The gold bezel is a very large part of the kit price. Most kits are around $160 without gold. The price without gold is in the product description. If you’d prefer to opt out gold just leave a note at purchase (there’s a box) and I’ll refund the cost of the gold bezel.
Many of these sets are cut to order so there may be slight variation in pattern compared to images, especially in the agates. I promise they’ll be just as pretty though. Holes are drilled after kits are ordered to leave me options if a kit doesn’t sell.

Why buy a kit from me? I cut every stone so that a very short bezel is able to securely set the cabochon. This is one of the techniques I use constantly in my own work to avoid going bankrupt buying gold. The kit provides just what you need so you don’t have to meet the minimum order requirements of suppliers. Lastly, when I provide the materials everyone will have exactly what they need which keeps the class flowing smoothly and minimizes my need for anxiety medication.

At checkout, make sure to select the correct shipping method. Virtual students will have their kits shipped USPS Priority. In-person students will have their kit smuggled across state lines by your’s truly.
