I know this wasnt possible to silversmiths and jewelers of years back, but we have YouTube now to help us learn this beautiful art. I cant tell you how many videos I have watched from masters who grace us with their videos. I consider myself lucky that a master silversmith or master jeweler would upload videos to instruct us with.
Doing even a simple search like "Making a Sterling Silver Ring" or "Creating a Bezel" yields many video results for us to choose from. I have seen many of them and there are still so many to go. Some of my favorite YouTube poster for jewelry making are: Vandyke Jewelers, 1soham1, Rio Grande, Vanessa Nicole Jewelers, The Desert Artist, Don Norris and so many more. I am extremely grateful that we have that wonderful resource to guide, teach and direct us.
I have learned most of what I know by watching masters on YouTube. Give it a try, do some searches and see what you can learn.
I am sharing my experience as a Silversmith and aspiring Jeweler.
