Join Roxanna for a hands-on wax carving workshop where you’ll design and create your own pendant, a unique piece that can hold personal meaning, whether for yourself or someone you love.
No experience is needed. Roxanna will guide you through traditional hand-carving techniques, showing you how to shape and refine your design using a variety of wax carving tools in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Mood boards will be provided on the day to inspire your ideas and help you explore shapes, forms, and symbols that resonate with you.
You’ll be encouraged to think about the story or inspiration behind your piece, whether it’s a symbol, memory, or simply a form you’re drawn to.
Feel free to bring along any personal objects or images to develop your ideas further with Roxanna’s guidance, and enjoy the playful process of bringing your pendant to life.
Course Objectives:
Fundamentals of Wax Carving: Learn about the different types of wax used in jewellery making, tools and equipment needed for wax carving, and safety precautions.
Wax Carving Techniques: Master essential wax carving techniques including shaping, carving, filing, and finishing to bring your design to life.
Creating Texture and Detail: Experiment with various tools and methods to add texture, patterns, and intricate details to your ring design, allowing you to express your creativity.
Finishing: Learn the final steps of finishing your wax ring to achieve a professional-quality finish.
Casting: Gain an overview of the casting process, including preparing the wax model for casting and the various casting methods available. We will send your wax ring to the casting house, collect it, and finish it for you. Subsequently, we will send you the finished silver (brass or gold – your choice) pendant back to you via post. You will receive your finished pendant, ready to wear, in about 2-3 weeks since completing the workshop.
Outcome:
By the end of the course, participants will have completed their own hand-carved wax pendant ready to be sent off for casting. They will also have gained a solid foundation in wax carving techniques and the confidence to continue exploring the art of wax carving jewellery on their own.
Join us for this exciting opportunity to unleash your creativity and craft your very own custom pendant masterpiece!

All wax and carving tools will be provided. Participants are welcome to bring any additional tools or design inspirations they may have. Light refreshment.
