Lost Wax Jewelry Workshop in Florence

  • Firenze
  • 2:30 hours
  • English, Italian or Spanish

Spend a morning in Florence carving your own jewelry in wax and have one piece cast in 925 silver.

What is lost wax? It is the traditional way to cast metal: you sculpt a piece in wax, then silver replaces the wax in a mould. It lets you make shapes that are hard to forge by hand.

In 2.5 hours you play with different waxes and techniques: shaping, texture, welding, folding, different thicknesses, wires and sheets. Make rings, earrings, pendants, or anything you like. Experience helps, but it is not necessary.

At the end you choose one piece (up to about 7 grams of metal) to be cast in 925 silver. You keep the other wax pieces. Your silver piece is sent to your address after 20-25 days.

What's included

  • Everything you need to make the jewelry. An extra cost applies only for larger pieces.
  • Delivery is not included in the price. It is possible, the cost depends on where it goes, and we arrange it on the day.
