About the event
Create your own sterling silver ring or pendant. Learn about the lost wax casting process, then design and make a wax ring or pendant ready for casting. Not suitable for young children.
In a small group of no more than 6 people we will be making our very own solid silver jewellery using the lost wax casting technique. Lost wax is a process starting with crafting the jewellery out of wax, a mould is made around the wax, and then molten silver is poured into the mould which burns away the wax and leaves a perfect cast in silver.
In the workshop we will be creating our rings out of wax, which is a wonderful and adaptable material to work with, even beginners will find it easy to work with, and the detail is remarkable.
The wax pieces will then be taken offsite for casting, Nathan will finish and polish your silver piece and post back to you. If you use reading glasses make sure to bring them!

The ticket price does not include the casting cost - this will be calculated according to the ring weight once it has been cast, and you will be invoiced accordingly. As of my most recent cast in March 2026, the average ring weighing up to 10g is approximately £30-£35. Items may also be cast in red bronze, white bronze or brass with the average ring in these metals being £10-£15.
T&C's: You will be advised on your design and its weight value at the workshop.
Full refunds are available (minus service fees) up to 48hours before the workshop is due to start. Partial refund will be offered after this time.
You are entitled to move your booking to any other booking date at any time before the workshop start. Please be respectful and notify the host as soon as possible of you are unable to attend.
