A 2hr fun workshop with all materials provided. All are welcome and no experience is necessary...
A graduate of the Birmingham School of jewellery, I have been a bespoke fine jewellery designer for over 12 years whilst designing and selling my own collections internationally and teaching workshops at various venues and festivals.
There is no design or making experience necessary, you will be guided through the whole process including design inspiration if you are unsure what you would like to make. Students often comment how meditative and relaxing it can be working with the wax and making with their hands.
Lost wax casting is an ancient jewellery making technique, and the workshop is a perfect intro to jewellery making for anyone age 16+. You may like to make a unique gift for someone you love.
Have your wax model cast + finished by me afterwards if you choose, for an additional £40 plus the silver or gold cost calculated by the weight of your piece on the day. If you choose to go ahead and cast your piece the total cost for the ticketed session, plus your finished piece is averages around £85-90 depending on how big and heavy your final design is. Please note metal prices are currently higher than usual.
Engraving and 18ct gold plating can be added on the day for an extra charge too
Your design is usually ready to collect from my Worcester studio within 2-3 weeks of the workshop , or your piece can be posted to you.
My jewellery making workshops are also available for private groups or one to one at your home, my Worcestershire studio or your venue of choice. I can be booked for hen do's, retreats and other private events.
Please see my website hekajewellery.com for the full range of workshop dates of all kinds!
