Abstract: The present situation and problems of the jewelry design in China are analyzed then the similar problems in the art design education, which conventionally much more emphasis was put on the theories but students practical capacity training was perhaps partly neglected, are researched. Furthermore, the positive influence of hands-on experience on ideas in jewelry design in terms of extent, depth, accuracy and fuzziness is discussed, thus in the end the conclusion is fully supported that practice in jewelry design thoughts are and will be greatly benefit from hands-on experience.
