5 hours Class size 1 on 1       $390 (Afterpay available)

Looking to up your game in your jewellery making? Come along and learn how to craft models by building up with hard wax using the lost wax carving technique. You will learn techniques to create plain organic models first to get used to wax, the flow and shaping and then move on to create some models for gemstones.
You will learn to create claws over the stone in wax and remove them before casting. This will enable you to reset the stones easily at the other end.
This class is wax work technique only.
Please note you are required to bring your own gemstones for this class - they can be any practise stones, they don’t need to be expensive or fancy, and you will want them to be at least 7 mm and up.
You will also need to wear a respirator mask as this wax does give off fumes. They will be provided.
What you'll get
A few completed wax models to take home with them
Knowledge required
You will want to have completed a beginners jewellery course as there is no finish off in this course. I have a beginners course listed in person or online to learn these skills
What to bring
A respitory face mask, an apron and some gemstones. Over 7mm.
Location

Gasworks Arts Park. Arts And Crafts Room. Richardson Street, Albert Park. Melbourne. Vic

Get the no 1 tram and get off at Richardson street/Victoria Avenue or Drive and park outside the room on Richardson street.

My name is Eran Naylor and I am a self taught goldsmith, designer and teacher. I have my own label, a working studio in Melbourne and also run a jewellery school with in person classes and online jewellery classes. I started making jewellery over 25 years ago and have progressed from there as creating jewellery became more and more of a passion
I started off beading gemstones and wire wrapping jewellery pieces to saw piercing and then onto lost wax carving work, teaching myself and learning to solder along the way. I am proof that you can make it on your own and work it out as you go but I made a lot of mistakes along the way with no internet or short classes available today and I aim to help you avoid those same mistakes and give you a good solid base for making jewellery with wax.
I started teaching eight years ago after helping a few friends with their skills and realised how much I have to offer, especially in lost wax carving. Over a thousand students later, I have expanded the course range and now offer you these online jewellery courses to practice at home anywhere in the world at your own pace.
I continue to work now as a bespoke goldsmith and miss the days when I could just sit for hours playing with wax. This is the best way to learn. I find that teaching and helping others makes up for my personal lack of creative time now and is so enjoyable that it more gives back. All of my students know that I love nothing more than talking jewellery and am always available to help.
I hope that you enjoy your journey and I would be honoured to be a part of that along the way.
