Unleash your creativity in this intensive 5-day Casting Bootcamp, led by expert silversmith Cheryl Jacobs. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine and expand your casting skills, this hands-on course is the perfect opportunity to explore a variety of techniques while creating unique pieces of jewelry each day.
What to Expect:
-
Day One: Sand Casting
-
Day Two: Cuttlefish Bone Casting
-
Days Three to Five: Lost Wax Casting
- Wax Carving
- Soft Wax Modelling Technique
Students will have the freedom to cast their own designs—whether it’s earrings, pendants, or rings—and will pour the silver themselves under Cheryl's guidance. Prefer to watch? The instructor can handle the pour for you.
You’ll also have time to finish your pieces, adding bails, hooks, or other details, even a stone, as well as polishing and applying patinas for a professional touch.
If time allows, Cheryl will demonstrate additional techniques like water casting and other exciting low-tech methods.
Don’t miss this chance to spend a week “playing with fire” while learning from one of the best in the field.
Please note: Stairway Studio is not a scent-free environment, however we ask that the use of scented products be limited in order to avoid triggering sensitivities in fellow students when working in close quarters.
