Wax Carving + Sand Casting - RINGS JAN 18 - FEB 8

 

4-Week Wax Carving & Sand Casting Workshop

Over four weeks, you’ll design and carve your own signet ring in wax, then learn the art of sand casting to turn your design into metal.

🎨 All Skill Levels Welcome: Whether you’re a complete beginner or already make jewelry, this class meets you where you are.

🌟 What to Expect:

• Week 1: Start carving your design in wax. Bold, minimal, or intricate, this is where your idea takes shape.
• Week 2: Keep refining your carving and finalize every detail before casting.
• Week 3: Learn sand casting, a traditional, low-tech technique. You’ll mold your wax design and pour it in metal, and you’ll see your ring come out of the sand.
• Week 4: Clean up, refine, and polish your ring, adding the finishing touches that make it yours.

✨ Small Class Size: Capped at 6 participants, so you get personal instruction and plenty of hands-on time.
