This class runs on July 20 & 27 and August 10.
Class times are 10am - 1pm on all three sessions.
Over Three sessions create stunning jewellery using the age-old lost wax technique. This is an excellent opportunity to treat yourself to some creative fun!
In weeks one and two you'll learn how to work with jeweller's hard wax to create beautiful textures in metal that can be used to create amazing rings or objects. Your waxes will be sent away for casting in the metal of your choice.
Then there’s a week break before the third session, to allow time for everyone's waxes to be cast. The third session covers how to trim, clean and finish your casts, turning them into original jewellery ready to wear!
More advanced students can use these sessions to complete projects in a class setting.
Included in the class fee are all your different types of waxes, sandpaper and courier costs.
Not included are the casting and metal costs which vary from student to student depending on what sized ring they want to make and the type of metal you choose. Small castings can cost around $6.65 - $12 and might cost between $7 to $30 in metals depending on if you use red bronze, white bronze or silver.
Class fees are $256 full price, or $230 for earlybird bookings until 23 June.
Bookings are on our website.
Kids over the age of 12 or so are welcome to attend this class. Any child under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an enrolled parent or guardian.
