  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    BEWARE - the owners who take your money are very difficult to deal with. It takes a lot of emails back and forth to get signed-up. The registration process is cumbersome and the rules of the class are not clear. They seem to make up the rules of the class regarding refunds, class start dates, make-up classes, equipment needed, etc, as they go along,   The owners took 3 weeks to issue me a refund of close to $1000 which I requested. This was after getting double COVID and couldn't possibly attend ahead of the months I had pre-paid for. They were also rude to me after I said I would return in a few months after I recovered - even after I had taken almost a year of classes from them. I opted to sign-up for classes elsewhere because life is too short, and I didn't deserve the owners' bad treatment towards me. Everything was such a hassle and not clearly stated. The whole experience was not worth it. The instructor Collette is the best. She wrote me a nice note telling me that she and my classmates had missed me.
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    David with his 40 + years of experience in jewelry making is a great mentor and teacher, who inspired me to become a jewelry designer from the moment I met him almost 10 years ago. He masters all kind of goldsmith technics and alloys. He also understands gemstones and adapts to the complexity and style you are working on.
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    I have been taking classes with David for a number of years now and he is absolutely incredible. He taught me everything I know about jewelry making, which has helped my business go to the next level. He’s incredibly talented and is so inspiring. David taught me everything I needed to know about technique and did so with patience and kindness. I am so happy that I discovered his classes and would highly recommend them to anyone. He is a 10/10!
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    I love Benlolo Studio jewelry class!! I have been taking weekly evening class since May and this is one of the BEST presents I have given myself. My instructor is super nice, kind, specific, and encouraging. I have made things I'd never dreamt I could make. I have ideas and images of jewelry I would like to wear but no one is making them in the market, so I get to make them myself. Studio is immaculate with all kinds of tools we need. Everything is super well-maintained and they have great support system. Totally love taking their courses!
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    Class at Benlolo has been phenomenal. I look forward to it so much every week. The studio itself feels timeless and so special. My instructor, Colette, is extremely knowledgeable and encouraging. There is a perfect balance of “me time,” where everyone is focused and working on their projects, and class time, where we learn new things from Colette. I will probably end up signing up for more classes when my time is up!
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    David and Tomomi are excellent instructors and do a wonderful job of helping students achieve their creative goals. The advanced class is structured in a way where you can get as much or as little help as you need. With decades of instructor experience to draw on, the possibilities are truly endless, from wax carving to complex silver and gold creations. I can’t recommend them enough.

  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    I've taken classes at The Benlolo Studio for over five years and I have to say it has been quite an education in jewelry design and metal-smithing. Under the tutelage of the teacher, David Benlolo, I have been able to start my own fine jewelry business in New York City. The teacher is attentive and patient and highly inspiring. He always you to create whatever is in your heart. The class is also very flexible for those who have jobs during the day so there is really room to grow in your craft. You also get to determine which aspects of jewelry making you would like to specialize in. The class rooms are an intimate size and all my fellow students were fantastic. It was a congenial atmosphere and we all learned a lot from each other. It is a fantastic creative space. Please feel free to check out my website: www.charltonandlola.com
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    This is my second time to take class with David. The learning experience here is so wonderful. David is so kind and patient to teach me many knowledge about the jewelry making, just feel so luck to studying in his class. Also the assistant Tomomi is so nice to help me during the class. Really appreciate them! I'd love to come back to studio next time for sure !
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    This is a working studio, so you get to see people working at all levels and using all sorts of materials. I really liked that the schedule is somewhat flexible. I have to travel for work and if I missed a class, I could make it up the following week as long as I gave 48 hours notice. I did make a ring and while it wasn't really my style, for a first project, I learned a lot and was able to give the ring to a friend who just loved it. I was able to make 3 things during the 8 weeks and would happily continue on here. The owner, David, is very nice and guides people very well.
  • Jewelry Design/Making (6 Weeks Intermediate & Advanced)

    David is an extremely patient, easy-going and friendly teacher. Always available to answer questions even with multiple students present and will walk around to check on others. He helped me feel like I could actually achieve the designs I wanted without much obstacle.
