Lost Wax Carving

If you don't quite see the piece you want, or just want a piece

that you have designed yourself we can make it for you!

Custom jewelry typically takes around 30-60 days to make.

 

 

Lost wax carving is an ancient art that has been around

for hundreds and possibly thousands of years.

The name comes from the fact that

after the mold is created the original wax jewelry carving

is melted away and "lost".

First the item is carved out of high quality wax, stones can be set

to give a better idea of the finished product.

After you have seen the piece and approved the wax

or informed us on what changes to make the piece is

placed into a mold and the wax is burned out.

Next the mold is placed into a vacuum and the molten

silver, gold, or platinum is poured into the mold.

Then the piece is polished, any stones are set and

any final adjustments to the piece are made.

You now have your new jewelry!
