What you'll do

Looking for the best things to do in Melbourne? Come along and join this jewellery making class for jewellery students and jewellers wishing to broaden their wax work skills.

This course will run for two consecutive weeks at the same time.

Using pink wax, you will cover techniques on how to build up wax to create a 3D jewellery model and to make space for a stone in a bezel or claw setting. Your friendly teacher will show you demonstration-led examples so that everyone makes the same model and then have free time to create a model of your own designs.

As this hands-on class only covers wax modelling, you will need to have some previous experience of working with wax, casting and finish off skills.

You will leave with new techniques under your belt, as well as instructions to repeat at home and an equipment/suppliers list.

At the end of the workshop, you'll also get to take home a beautiful wax model to make your own jewellery for a special someone or treat yourself!

Wax model of your own design

Women-owned

My name is Eran Naylor and I am a self taught goldsmith, designer and teacher. I have my own label, a working studio in Melbourne and also run a jewellery school with in person classes and online jewellery classes. I started making jewellery over 25 years ago and have progressed from there as creating jewellery became more and more of a passion

I started off beading gemstones and wire wrapping jewellery pieces to saw piercing and then onto lost wax carving work, teaching myself and learning to solder along the way. I am proof that you can make it on your own and work it out as you go but I made a lot of mistakes along the way with no internet or short classes available today and I aim to help you avoid those same mistakes and give you a good solid base for making jewellery with wax.

I started teaching eight years ago after helping a few friends with their skills and realised how much I have to offer, especially in lost wax carving. Over a thousand students later, I have expanded the course range and now offer you these online jewellery courses to practice at home anywhere in the world at your own pace.

I continue to work now as a bespoke goldsmith and miss the days when I could just sit for hours playing with wax. This is the best way to learn. I find that teaching and helping others makes up for my personal lack of creative time now and is so enjoyable that it more gives back. All of my students know that I love nothing more than talking jewellery and am always available to help.

I hope that you enjoy your journey and I would be honoured to be a part of that along the way.
