What to expect

Join me for a relaxing and creative time of wax sculpting, where you’ll craft your own unique jewelry piece using the ancient lost wax technique. Benedetta, founder of Tobe Atelier, will guide you step by step as you bring your jewelry ideas to life, from sculpting the wax model to preparing it for casting in metal. Along the way, you’ll enjoy a cozy, informal atmosphere with drinks and bites.

You don’t need any prior experience in goldsmithing! I’ll help you with any skill or ideas, whether you're working from a sketch, an image on your phone, or just a concept in your mind. You’ll leave with a complete understanding of the lost wax process and a wax model of your design, ready to be transformed into a metal piece.

Once the workshop is complete, your model will be cast in brass, polished, and finished. You can either pick up your piece at the studio in about 3 weeks or opt for insured shipping (extra cost). Additional pieces or upgrades like cast in silver925, gold plating and gemstone settings are available at the end of the session.
