GIVE ME THE INFO…
Wax carving is a technique used by jewellers to mould, carve and craft pieces of jewellery in a material that is cheap, easily shaped and forgiving. Wax allows makers to be creative and test ideas before committing to metal.
In this unique class, we will show you the techniques on how to carve jeweller’s wax into a ring. The wax will then be sent off to cast in silver using the lost wax casting process. We will then finish the ring in our workshop and post them back to the hands that carved them!
CAN I DO THIS CLASS?
This is for complete beginners. It would also suit someone looking to expand their existing jewellery making skills. We love ambition.
WHAT HAPPENS?
You’ll be shown how to sculpt and carve jewellers wax, learn about the casting process and carve a ring ready to be cast in silver.
