Carve a silver amulet in this hands-on session, working with jewellers’ wax and professional carving tools to create your own unique design in a unique location at Broughty Ferry Castle on the beach.
How does it work?
Firstly, you’ll melt your week away in the sauna. The heat relaxes your muscles, calms your mind and helps to fuel your creativity. You’ll then be welcomed to the craft circle around the fire pit and given a demonstration on carving the wax.
Following Kate’s guidance, you will learn to carve a wax amulet template to your own design or feel free to replicate one of ours. Once your wax model is complete, it will be sent to be cast in silver using the ancient art of lost-wax casting. Your amulet will then be hand-finished by Kate to your chosen specifications. Your finished silver amulet will be ready within three weeks of the workshop.
This workshop is perfect for beginners or those looking to try something new. You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of the lost-wax jewellery-making process and techniques and a stunning creation to treasure forever.
All tools and materials will be provided for this jewellery workshop, as well as a herbal tea; just bring yourself and your ideas.
About your Tutor
This session will be led by Kate, an accomplished jeweller with over fifteen years of experience in the craft and teaching, who now runs Bees Sauna at Broughty Ferry Beach. She has been inspiring creativity and supporting emerging talent across Scotland since 2009, bringing her expertise to communities in unique and exciting ways.
Kate’s workshops have been hosted in some of Scotland’s most vibrant venues in Fife, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dumfries, Aberdeen and Inverness. Her friendly, approachable style ensures a fun and relaxed atmosphere for participants of all skill levels.
The perfect class for an individual or a group of friends to come and learn, socialise and most importantly, make some jewellery! Experience the joy of bringing your personal piece of jewellery to life. It's not just about making the jewellery—it's about having a new experience, making memories and taking home a part of your creative journey.
All materials and your silver cast are included. Your amulet will come with an 18” silver chain.
Due to the requirements of this workshop, good eyesight is a must.
