BOOK AT https://www.anonomajewellery.com/shop/p/workshop
Spaces are limited - so don't wait if you'd like to join! Come alone or come with a friend :)
In this 3-hour hands-on workshop you will learn all the skills required to design and create your own bespoke ring using ancient wax carving techniques! This workshop is a perfect opportunity to free your mind, get creative and connect with other like-minded people whilst making a special heirloom. We hold a lot of sentiment in the jewellery we wear. It has the power to transport us, to bring back memories of loved ones and experiences. Hand-making a special heirloom only amplifies this. You can use this time to make the perfect present for a loved one or make a special ring to celebrate yourself.
All materials will be provided, and no prior experience is necessary. However, if you would like to deepen your existing skill set, that is possible too. The techniques in wax carving and what you can create in wax are endless! I will tailer a portion of the workshop to each individual's design, but will also cover all the different methods and techniques used in wax carving for lost wax casting.
By the end of the session you will have completed a carving of your ring design as a wax master in jewellers wax only. You can then choose to have your wax ring cast into sterling silver (or gold, if you prefer) and hand polished to your desired finish. This takes about 2 weeks.
There will be some exciting optional upgrades available in-class, including gemstone setting, gold plating or engraving to make your ring even more special (available for pre-purchase or to add on the day).
NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED!
This class is perfect for beginners -however, if you do have experience, I will cater to you and add extra challenges to build on your skills.
WORKSHOP INCLUDES:
✶Drawing materials
✶All tools and materials: 5mm wax ring blanks*, wax files, a selection of carving tools, sandpaper and sanding sticks, fine point engraving tools and safety thimbles for your fingers. *Additional widths available, may cost extra when casting.
✶Step-by-step wax carving tutorials and one-on-one assistance
✶Lots of fun, of course!
