Create your unique wax ring.

Hand carve your own jewelry design in this fun and informal workshop, which is suitable for beginners. If you fancy a fun creative moment for yourself or together with friends than I invite you to join a small group of likeminded creatives.

What will we do?

In this workshop I will guide you through the basics of the ancient technique called ‘Lost Wax Casting’. Under guidance, you will design and create your dream ring in wax. You will file and model your unique design out of wax and explore techniques for creating textures in the surface using the tools provided. After 2,5 hours of being completely captivated by this technique, at the end of the workshop you will have made a wax master model completely to your likings and your design.

As this is a informal Workshop I do not go into the technicalities of the process. If you like to do this on a regular basis I would love to invite you to the Monday Wax Classes, and if you want to get into the nitty gritty and learn all the technical details of making, casting and finishing your creations than I suggest you book the Wax StarterClass or Wax MasterClass.

After the Workshop, your master wax model will be taken to our local foundry. There your unique design will be cast in recycled Silver. After returning from the foundry, I will hand finish and polish your silver piece of jewelry. Your piece will be ready to collect within a maximum of 3 weeks. If you like your piece of jewelry to be send to your home than please select the following option here.
