Jess Blak is an Australian contemporary metalsmith with an appreciation for traditional craftsmanship and ethical practices. Her organic approach to creating balances repetition and authenticity whilst collections are inspired by the juxtaposition of nature and the built environment. The treatment of the designs,  created using the lost wax casting technique, suggests time has manipulated the surface leaving it organic and completely unpredictable. Jess has been working from her flagship store in Brisbane's Fortitude valley for 3 years, handcrafting timeless pieces for her growing clientbase.

Fun class making the silver ring mould out of wax, Jess was very informative about the subject and made everyone feel at ease quickly. Looking forward to receiving the ring soon.

The course was well organized and Jess was very helpful and is clearly good at her trade. Can’t wait to see how the finished product turns out.

Had a fantastic time, Jess was incredible helpful, very knowledgeable and lovely to spend time with. The shop is a bit tight, but this just adds to the atmosphere.

Will recommend to friends and would love to go again, even to hang out haha.

Was a fantastic night I will be going again and taking friends who I think will be interested and have fun. Jess was a fantastic teacher and created the best atmosphere. I was nervous but she guided me through the process. I made a friend and had the best time with the people there I can't recommend this enough I can't wait to see my finished rings.

Jess was amazing, she was so informative with teaching skills, but happily stood back to let you design your own creations. I'm really keen to do another one of Jess's classes. She's a true artisan and it's a privilege to learn from her.
