In this three hour workshop, you will learn the basics of the ancient art of sand casting and walk out with a finished, *sterling silver ring. This class is perfect for those that love organic and raw styles as sand casting sometimes has a mind of it’s own and can leave rustic marks of sand and dents in your ring.
Our instructor, Camille will guide you through the entire process, from preparing the sand mold to pouring molten sterling silver and finishing the piece. We will start with following the steps to create a mold for your cast in the sand. Once the mold is prepared, you will work side by side with Camille to melt scrap silver down and then pour into their sand mold. After that, we will learn how to file, sand and polish your rings to your liking. Attendees will be able to re-cast their rings up to three times, as sometimes the cast may not be successful. This class is great for those that want to try something new and play with the possibilities of metal-working.
