During this intimate/relaxed gathering at the Center for the Arts Evergreen, Dante will teach you how to make your own ring! You will carve or sculpt your pendant design out of wax during the 3.5-hour class. Your wax will then be cast into the metal of your choice by Dante using the traditional method of lost wax casting. This class will be taught through a combination of demonstrations and one-on-one instruction. All tools and materials will be provided so just show up on time with ideas and the magic will happen!
After the workshop, Dante takes your wax creations to be cast in brass (included) or you can opt to cast in gold or sterling silver for added charge that will be determined based on your wax weight and paid at the end of the workshop. Following casting, your design will be cleaned up, polished and made ready for pick up at CAE. In the end, you will be the proud maker/designer of a shiny timeless keepsake to wear or share with a loved one! NOTE: Ring delivery may take 4-6 wks.
Included:
- Wax blanks, individualized instruction, one brass casting of your ring design and a professional polish/finish added to your piece.
- 10% discount in the CAE gift shop on the day of your class.
**You may opt to have your ring cast in sterling silver or gold instead of brass for an extra charge determined by the weight of your wax and the day’s metal market.
