Using the lost wax technique, you'll transform your ideas into a beautiful sterling silver pendant.
Your creative journey begins with sketching your pendant design. Don't worry if you're not an experienced artist - Nadia, Luke and Quincey will be there to inspire and support you. Once you've got your concept, you'll choose a jewelry wax template to use as the base for your piece. Next, you'll draw your sketch on the wax, following clear guidelines to ensure your vision comes to life.
Now the real fun begins! You'll start carving in the wax, using a variety of tools to shape and refine your pendant. With each precise cut and careful detail, your design will take shape. The session ends with a final buffing and polishing of your wax model to make it ready for casting.
From here you leave the magic to the Stööki Craft Makers who will cast your design in sterling silver and hand-finish it.
Book your place and get ready to make your own creation under the expert guidance of Nadia, Luke and Quincey!
