M Jewellery’s wax carving workshops are the perfect introduction to turning a sketch into jewellery. Run by Marni, a South East London jeweller with Birmingham roots, these intimate classes teach the age-old craft of lost wax casting, a technique used by jewellers for centuries to transform wax designs into solid metal rings.
The workshops are beginner-friendly, requiring no prior experience. You’ll start with a sketch, then carve your design in jeweller’s wax under Marni’s expert guidance. Along the way, you’ll explore techniques and tips drawn from her own practice, seeing how shapes, textures, and personal touches can bring a design to life. By the end of the session, you’ll leave your wax piece with Marni, who will cast it in sterling silver, with optional upgrades to gold, plating, engraving, or the addition of gemstones for those seeking a more customised result.
