This is a follow-on course from the Beginners Jewellery Wax Carving and Finishing Course: Part 1. For previous students of that or any other wax course, please let your teacher know what you have previously learnt when booking.

In this two-part course, you will learn about:

  • Other types of wax and what jobs they are good for

I am Eran Naylor and I am an Australian goldsmith and designer, originally from England. I began making jewellery about 25 years ago and simply never stopped. I was hooked and even today I find it hard to stop. I am mainly self-taught from a desire to create. I design and hand-make my collections from my workshops in Melbourne. I also teach classes at Gasworks Arts Park in Albert Park, have an online jewellery school and also teach by private tuition and Zoom.

Wax work is more my specialty and that is mainly what I teach. I love teaching, it keeps me surrounded by creative thinkers and that in itself gives back to me as much as I help others. So it’s a win-win situation that keeps the creative spirit alive!

My inspirations for my collections come first and foremost from designs and patterns from the old Mesopotamian regions, India and South America. In my late twenties, I became fascinated by Egyptology and that is where my love of adornment really flourished. I like to try to transfer the beauty of older times to bold, classic pieces that can be worn or used with ease today. I try to embody in my work the beauty and calm that adorns the wearer and has a bohemian feel and look about it, recreating feeling and senses into real pieces that can be worn like talismans every day.

Using materials, and colours and often experimenting with new techniques I try to create pieces that make the senses flow.
