Form, Shape, Resize: Mandrels for Every Jeweller’s Bench
The right tools are essential for creating pieces that stand out. Mandrels are indispensable for shaping, sizing, and forming metal with accuracy and consistency.
Whether you're crafting rings, bracelets, or intricate components, our selection of mandrels offers the quality and versatility needed for exceptional results.
Use mandrels for:
Shaping Rings: After soldering, place the ring on the appropriate-sized mandrel and gently tap with a rawhide mallet to achieve the desired shape.
Resizing Rings: To enlarge a ring, slide it onto the mandrel and tap evenly around the band, checking frequently to avoid over-expansion.
Forming Bracelets: Use bracelet mandrels to shape metal into smooth curves, ensuring consistent sizing and form.
Creating Bezels: Select a mandrel that matches the desired stone size, wrap the bezel strip around it, and gently tap to shape. This ensures a snug fit and professional finish for your gemstone settings.
