π MEET THE MAKER: A LITTLE MOUNTAIN MAGIC IN LEADVILLE
Create a one-of-a-kind gemstone pendant with master jeweler Jordan Borek during an exclusive private gallery takeover in gorgeous Leadville.
Colorado gems. Silver. Your own two hands.
Just 10 spots.
Spend an unforgettable afternoon with the peerless Jordan Borek, a master jeweler whose hands turn beautiful stones into extraordinary wearable art. For this intimate experience, his stunning Leadville gallery is exclusively ours—and you’re invited to become the maker. Under Jordan’s guidance, you’ll create your own pendant from start to finish, working with Colorado and locally sourced gems and learning the craft behind a piece you’ll treasure. Keep it close to your heart or give someone a gift made with your own hands.
β¨ FROM GEMSTONE TO FINISHED JEWEL *Find your stone: Choose a precut cabochon—a shaped, polished gemstone—that speaks to you. *Make it your own: Select your silver pendant backing and the bail, the loop that connects your pendant to its chain. *Bring the pieces together: With Jordan’s guidance, assemble and solder your pendant. *Shape and refine: Use a Dremel station to grind, smooth and perfect its contours. *Set the stone and make it shine: Secure your gemstone, polish your finished piece and leave with a pendant complete with a silver chain. Along the way, you’ll be introduced to the fundamentals of jewelry fabrication, including sawing, hammering, soldering, grinding, polishing and stone setting.
