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.

 

Your workshop includes
▹ Access to all applicable tools and materials to explore and complete your piece
▹ An inspiring studio setting to create in for 2-3 hours solo or book with someone you know (1 pass per person)

▹ Learning new skills of 3D modelling in jewellery and working with jeweller’s wax
▹ All materials and tools needed to work on your piece plus 5 grams of brass or sterling silver for your final piece(s), or the first gram of 10k gold. Any remaining metal needed for your piece is extra and based on the weight of your wax pieces (which we will go through together at your session).
▹ Your pieces expertly polished by Caranina and ready for pick up about 4 weeks from your session date


More detail about metals: Once you finish your session happy with your pieces, they will be sent offsite for casting into the metal of your choice. Pricing is based on the final weight of your wax pieces, which we will go through together so you have no surprise bills at pick up of your pieces. If you want to work within a particular budget, let us know. Each workshop pass comes with some metal included. It’s plenty to complete a piece, but depending on your design, we can set you up with more metal if needed. We offer brass, sterling silver, and a selection of 10k-18k gold options. On average, you might be spending some extra making heavier pieces: $35-55 for brass and sterling silver, and $450+ for 10k gold.
