The Workshop
Join me for a relaxed afternoon of wax sculpting to create your own unique silver ring using the lost wax technique. Focusing on organic shapes and textures, I will guide you through the creation of your dream piece of jewellery as we chat, sip and bite. Make it a date afternoon with your partner, friends or yourself.
The course is designed for a maximum of 6 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.
Duration: 4 h
Fees: 180.00 euro
