About the event
In this 2 hour workshop you will learn how to use wax to create a custom ring design. You will be provided with wax blocks, carving tools, and a ring mandrel to help you shape and form the wax. The instructor will guide you through the process of carving the wax, including techniques for creating textures, patterns, and other design elements.
Once you have created your wax ring model, the instructor will keep it for casting in solid silver. The casting process takes 3 weeks or 4 weeks for gold plating.
Gold plating can be purchased at an additional cost of £15 on the day.
