The workshop
The one day wax sculpting workshop is designed to guide you through the creation of a piece of jewellery using the lost-wax technique. Focusing on soft waxes and textures, you will create a jewel with a unique organic style.
The course is designed for a maximum of 5 people and lasts 4 hours.
Wax sculpting is a slow and gentle activity that requires calm and dedication. Once you get into the flow you will be surprised at the results you can achieve
By the end of the course you will have a complete idea of what the process of making a piece of jewellery through the lost-wax technique is and you will be able to turn your ideas into reality by creating the wax for your jewellery from scratch.
After the workshop, your wax model will be cast in the chosen metal, and polished and finished by me. Your piece will be ready in approximately 2-3 weeks.
