WAX CARVING COURSES
Find Your Starting Point
The Wax Carving Short Courses are presented in the order that the skills develop, with each stage introducing techniques and understanding that support more advanced work. If you are new to wax carving, start with the foundations. If you already have relevant practical experience, you may be able to enter at a later stage, depending on the skills required for that course.
Introduction to Wax Carving
Learn the fundamentals of lost wax carving or refine your technique from a professional perspective. Get hands-on with the tools and carve your first ring or pendant from start to finish.
Sculptural Wax Carving
A two-day creative jewellery workshop focused on developing expressive three-dimensional forms in wax. This artistic wax carving course explores sculptural techniques, relief carving, and building volume using both subtractive and additive processes, guiding you through the creation of dynamic jewellery designs ready for casting.
Intermediate: Stone Setting in Wax (Brilliant Cut)
Take your skills further by learning how to carve clean, accurate settings for brilliant cut gemstones directly into wax — a core skill for creating expressive fine jewellery.
Advanced: Multi-Shape Stone Setting in Wax
Master more complex settings for various gemstone shapes — including ovals, marquise, pear, and more — and bring your own design vision to life with precision and freedom.
