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.
