Intro to Wax Carving at 92Y

Hosted by Steph Carendi

It’s Sunday morning and Gem X’ers hit the jeweler’s bench at the 92Y.  We were invited for a special workshop to create our unique wax carved ring.  With Brice Garrett as our guide, we sawed, filed and perfected our unique wax molds in the art of lost wax casting.  In the process, we found deep appreciation for how meticulous the process is, and also how meditative studio time can be for bench jewelers.  Now we have our own wax rings ready to cast!
