Wax Carving Workshop

This 4-hour workshop is an introduction to the ancient art of wax carving. You will learn how to design, transfer your design to the wax, carve, file, and give the desired finishing to a wax ring. Later on, this ring will be cast in sterling silver to create the final jewelry piece.

After the class, each participant will have a finished wax model and the knowledge to continue their own practice. The silver rings will be ready for pick-up 3 weeks after the class.

Wax carving is like sculpture for jewelry. It is a very meditative technique that opens the possibility to infinite shapes, textures, and experimentation.  I will share with you everything I know about this fascinating technique so that you can carve amazing pieces of jewelry in no time.

Upcoming Workshops

This workshop is tailored for beginners as well as more experienced makers who want to improve their techniques.

The price includes all tools and materials to make a sterling silver ring.

Once cast, the silver ring will be filed and polished by me. Your piece will be ready for pick-up 2 weeks after the workshop. All The rings come packed in an eco-friendly recycled box.

The classes are healed in English and for a reduced group of 6 students.

“I had a great time at Jose's workshop! I went in with zero experience in jewelry making, but in just one afternoon, I was able to create a stunning silver ring that I wear all the time now. Jose was an excellent instructor - she explained everything clearly and patiently, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this workshop to anyone looking to try something new!”

“I joined the workshop a few weeks ago and built my own amazing ring. It turned out exactly the way I wanted it to be! I wear it every day since then :-)
Jose is an amazing teacher with lots of patience for her students. Will for sure come again and recommend it to my friends.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop! I came with some ideas and no prior experience. Jose was very good at explaining me what I could realistically accomplish and why, and at guiding me through the process.
Jose made sure each participant received guidance, and the atmosphere was very welcoming, relaxed, and encouraging.
In the end, I am very happy with my ring and it was a great glimpse into what a jeweler’s work is like!”
