Indulge in a few hours of creativity, as we embark on a journey of crafting your own signet ring. Join us for a workshop filled with inspiration, guidance, and the joy of creating something special with your own two hands. 

 

In this structured workshop, we will work step by step through the process of lost wax carving to create a signet ring of your own design.  We'll start with a wax square and slowly carve it into your own personally designed ring. This class is about 2 hours, plus a second 1.5-2 hour polishing session to take place 3-4 weeks later.

 

Your workshop includes
▹ access to all tools and materials to explore and complete your piece
▹ a comfy learning experience with 1-2 individuals, hosted by Caranina

▹ learning new skills of working with jeweller’s wax and metal 
▹ wax to complete your project (metal for your piece is extra and based on the weight of your final design)


Purchasing a ticket to this workshop to book your own private workshop date uses this calendar. After purchasing, feel free to schedule yourself in!

 

Once you finish your session happy with your ring(s), it will be sent offsite for casting into the metal of your choice. Pricing is based on the final weight of your ring which we will go through together. We offer brass, sterling silver, and a selection of 10k-18k gold options. On average, attendees usually spend about $85 for brass, $110 for sterling silver, and $350+ for 10k gold. When your ring comes back, it is ready to be cleaned and polished together.

What does sliding scale mean?

Sliding scale pricing offers a range of price points for a given product or service. You are given the power to choose the price point that best supports your disposable income at the moment. The scale represents the idea that personal financial resources should not be the determining factor in whether or not someone has access to needed goods and services.

Everyone deserves to feel good and wear pieces which make them feel confident and showcase their personal style. While jewellery has often been considered a luxury, we want to take steps to make it more accessible to a wider audience as best as we can.
