About the class

Discover the art of lost wax casting and transform your designs into sculptural jewellery pieces.

In this hands-on course, you’ll learn how to carve and shape wax models, then cast your creations in metal using a simple vacuum casting method.
Work with new or recycled metal and develop techniques to refine your pieces into unique, wearable treasures.

Whether you're new to jewellery making or looking to expand your skill set, this course pairs well with other FAC jewellery classes.
