I may have screamed when I opened this 🤯 A miniature jeweler’s bench gifted to me by the incredible @craigdabler (possibly made by @riogrande back in the ‘90s? 👀 Paging @marknelson5121 to confirm!).
I asked Craig multiple times if he was sure—because this piece is an absolute treasure. ❤️
It’s not just the bench, though—it’s what it represents. This community is built by hardworking makers who share their knowledge, time, and support so generously.<br><br>@metalsmithsociety isn’t just a repost page—it’s a living, breathing group of jewelers lifting each other up.
Thank you for being here with me 💛<br>—Corkie<br><br>#jewelrystudio #metalsmithsociety #jewelrystudent #jewelersbench #jewelrycommunity #benchjeweler #miniatureart #jewelrymakersunite #riogrande #metalsmithlife #jewelersofinstagram
