Design Your Own Jewellery with Wax Carving

from £120.00

Turn an idea into a piece of jewellery in this creative wax carving workshop with designer-maker Tayo Bello.

You will sketch your design, then shape and refine it in specialist jeweller’s wax using a range of hand-carving tools. Your finished wax model will be professionally cast in sterling silver, ready for collection or posting around two weeks later.

Choose a design that feels like you: geometric, sculptural, organic or beautifully personal.

  • develop an idea suitable for wax carving

  • sketch and plan your jewellery design

  • use specialist wax-carving tools

  • shape and refine jeweller’s wax

  • prepare the finished design for casting

Choose one piece to create:

  • one ring, up to 8mm wide

  • one pendant, up to 30mm by 15mm

  • two charms or two small pendants, up to 15mm by 15mm each
