The Jewelry Arts Institute in New York:
Conveniently situated in Midtown Manhattan, the Jewelry Arts Institute (JAI) is a leading jewelry school that provides a comprehensive education in classical jewelry-making. Jewelry Arts is one of only a handful of institutions around the world that teaches classical methods of making fine jewelry. We provide our students with a rare opportunity to learn skills such as enameling, granulation, chain weaving and other techniques that are the hallmarks of classical jewelry.

Techniques:
All classical techniques taught at the Jewelry Arts Institute are taught in every class. These techniques are Byzantine enameling, classical chain making, classical settings, granulation in silver and gold, lapidary and other related techniques. Each technique is taught as part of a project that has been developed to illustrate that technique.

Enrollment:
Since all projects are taught by one-on-one demonstration, students of all levels can be enrolled in all classes. This is true for both the semester classes and the intensive workshops.

We have a teacher for every five or six students so the student gets a lot of attention. If a student were to complete all of the many projects we have developed, he/she would end up with a complete background of classical jewelry techniques.

Schedule:
Classes are held throughout the year. Each quarter consists of 12-8  classes, which meet once a week for three hours. Classes are held Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays,and Saturdays, 11am-2 pm and 3pm-6 pm and Fridays from 11am-2 pm; there is also a Tuesday and Wednesday evening class from 7 to 10 p.m. The studio is open for bench time on Mondays, Fridays & Saturdays.
