SUMMARY:Wax Carving Gemstone Ring - Two-Day Metalsmithing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this 2-day workshop\, learn how to carve a ring from wax and how to create a bezel cup to add a gemstone. \n\n\n\nCreate a wax carved gemstone ring\, which will be sent out to be cast in Bronze or Brass* after the first workshop day of June 21st. You will finish the ring on the second workshop day of August 2nd by adding a bezel cup and setting the gemstone. \n*You will have a choice of bronze or brass for the cast ring–see kit options under the description. The materials kit fee must be paid to the instructor on the first workshop day via Venmo\, CASH\, or credit card. \nVERY IMPORTANT! Due to the high cost of silver from the metals market fluctuation in 2026\, if you want to have your ring in sterling silver it is imperative to carve out the majority of the bulk from the backside of the ring to reduce costs\, or make a smaller and less heavy ring. If you want to make a huge piece\, you must be willing and able to prepay the instructor before she sends them out to the caster. \nDAY ONE – June 21st from 9:30AM-4:30PM \nIn the first class\, students will learn to carve a ring from wax and quickly get to work. Once our design is finished at the end of class we will send the rings out to a caster and then receive them in time for the second class. \nStudents will choose one gemstone to set in the ring. PLEASE BRING A SKETCHBOOK AND PENCIL. \nDAY TWO – August 2nd from 9:30AM-4:30PM \nIn the second class\, you will learn how to clean up a casting in metal\, measure a stone for creating a bezel cup\, solder sterling silver bezel cup to your ring\, learn the steps of filing\, sanding and polishing your ring\, and then set your stone. \n$199 workshop fee does not include materials. Students can choose to make a bronze or brass ring for an estimated* materials cost of $55 each OR $80-$140 materials cost per ring for sterling silver. Kit includes: Jewelers Carving Wax\, Gemstone\, Casting Labor Fee & the cost of the Metal. \n*NOTE: This is an approximate cost and actual kit cost may be different due to the metals market fluctuation in 2026. \nThe materials kit must be purchased from the instructor on the first workshop day via Venmo\, CASH\, or credit card. \n(For safety\, be sure to wear closed toe shoes and have long hair pulled back with clips or in a ponytail.) \nWe will have an hour break for lunch on both days. The studio will be closed during this break\, but there are nearby parks where you can eat lunch if you brought your own\, or you can check out one of the local restaurants in the area. \nOpen to adults only. \n \n  \n  \n\nAbout the instructor: Olivia Boi creates jewelry at her home and metals studio in Maine. Sterling silver\, brass\, and beautifully cut stones are the bread and butter to her practice. She started Strong Moon Metals December 2017 and hasn’t looked back ever since. You can find more of her work on her website\, or in person at local shows around the Portland area. \nClick here to view our cancellation policy.
