Who is this course for?
This exercise is suitable for the complete beginner although I would recommend our introduction to wax jewellery making video courses to give you more of a thorough background to some of the basic techniques.
We will also be releasing videos of more complex setting designs. Everything will all be individually downloadable meaning you can choose projects and processes to suit your jewellery style and skill level. Learning the principals in these courses will give you the skills you need for a whole range of different aesthetics
