This is a fun activity in West Norwood, London
We would love to invite you to our 5* rated Wax carving ring making class in South London! Led by jeweller, Tilly Sudsbury.
Please read the following carefully before booking :)
Wax is an incredible tool for jewellery making. We use a specific type of hard wax designed for making jewellery, that allows you to make a model of your ring. You can sculpt, carve, melt, build and so much more, to create your desired effect, and at the end of the class, your model will be complete and ready for casting, where you can choose some gemstones and other additions.
Then, we take it away for ‘casting’ in your choice of silver or gold, which is the process that turns your wax ring, in to a metal ring! We will give you a more detailed brief of this during the class so you understand exactly how this happens.
Our classes are 3 hours long, and are designed so that you can make something that you have designed yourself, though we also have samples and can chat through ideas with you, in case you need some more inspiration. You can always reach out to us before your class if you have questions about your design.
All materials will be provided, and no experience is necessary!
