Jewellery Workshops.

A lot of the techniques I use in my work today have been developed through playing and exploring the art of lost wax casting. I would love to offer that opportunity to others with a little more guidance.

You will dabble in jewellery making with all the stress of setting up and acquiring the tools taken out of the equation. It will either be a one time experience where you will create something to treasure or the knowledge you gain may be the first step into your own exploration of the world of jewellery.

What to expect.

located in my wee studio nestled into the garden in Paraparaumu Beach.

  • Intimate class with a limit of 4 people.

  • You will be creating your jewels in wax (this lost wax process is what I use to create all my jewels.)

  • A selection of my own wax molds will be provided to play with.

  • All the tools and materials required to make your piece will be provided (tools will remain in the studio once finished.)

  • Weight limit of 10g sterling silver per class.

  • Limit of 1 - 2 pieces per workshop.

  • For necklaces a 45cm diamond curb chain is included with the option to upgrade to a different style and length.

  • For earrings a set of 10mm silver hoops or handmade hooks are included, option to upgrade to different styles available (excludes studs.)

  • Findings are included for one piece per class (chains, hoops, hooks etc). There will be the option to add more if required.

  • You will be given a selection of mixed colour gemstones to include in your piece if you wish (1.5-3mm mixed CZ & semi-precious.)

  • There will be the option to have your jewels gold plated which will be done by me during the finishing stage and will incur a fee.

  • Following the class your piece will be sent for casting in sterling silver and finished off by me.

  • All gemstones will be bead set during the finishing stage, no casting in place as this isn’t reliable.

  • Once completed, your final piece can be picked up or mailed to you.

  • A complementary glass of wine/beer/pals or non-alcoholic drink will be provided.
