The Kent Raible Fabrication Method
Kent teaches a unique style of precision hand fabrication that is helping jewelers like you build more creative, 3 dimensional designs, while increasing your skills in measuring, filing and fitting, soldering, bezel-setting, and much more.
Through Kent’s online courses, you’ll learn an approach to fabrication that allows for creative adjustments as you are working, giving you a more spontaneous flow as you build your own unique designs.
What our Students say about Kent Raible
Even though I had a formal jewelry education, my work didn't really take off until I started working with Kent. I started with Going Tubular and then went through Architecture of a Ring. Both those classes really helped me develop my fabrication skills and I still go back and review some of the topics that were covered.
Now I have been a Mastermind Student for several years and my work continues to improve. Not only can I build on what I learned in Going Tubular and Architecture of a Ring, but in Mastermind, I have access to Kent and the other Students to cover more advanced topics and develop and refine my own design work.

A teacher shows you how to do it, a master opens up an entirely different set of possibilities. For me, Kent opened up those possibilities.

I can honestly say that [Architecture of a Ring] changed the game for me, and now I have a whole new understanding of fabrication.
I can honestly say that Kent is an incredible teacher. Don’t miss the chance to learn his tricks of the trade and expand your fabrication skills.

Learn something new every month from visionary artist & master goldsmith Kent Raible
Kent is a master of granulation and a wonderful instructor—he also is the best fabricator I have ever known. I teach cloisonné workshops and I have brought Kent in to work with my students. He is very approachable, attentive and thorough, I would love to have him teach in my California classroom anytime!
Truthfully, Kent has inspired plenty of improvement in my work and helped to reignite the passion for making exceptional pieces. I am fusing rather than soldering more and more to build settings. The metalwork on my cloisonné pieces has grown dramatically and I will continue to learn from Kent whenever the opportunity arises. Studying with Kent online is an exciting prospect. I prefer my own tools and workspace, I prefer my own schedule and I prefer my own projects. Now I can have all of this and get Kent’s help too!

Kent Raible is not just a modern master. Kent is not just the best granulation artist around. He is not just a fabulous goldsmith and jewelry designer. Kent is also one of the best teachers in the world. He learned at the feet of masters in Germany, as I did, and then he developed his skills even further.
Kent taught hundreds of students at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts. Kent knows his stuff, loves what he does and shares his passion eagerly. His methods are complete and easier than you might think. Take this opportunity! You will only regret it if you don’t.
