December 02 - 04, 2020

This event occurred as part of the 20/21 Classes & Workshops season. This is an archived view.

Join us via Zoom for a jewelry demonstration.

Before 3D printing, it was common for jewelers to carve rings for lost wax casting out of jeweler's carving wax. In two demonstration-only sessions, we'll show you how to hand-carve a wax ring for a cabochon setting, cast it in sterling silver and hammer-set a cabochon-shaped stone.

Part 1: Wax Carving, Invest Model, Burnout 

Fri, Dec 4, 12:15 pm ET
Part 2: Cast, Finish, Hammer-Set Stone

Free and open to Dartmouth students, employees and Hop Members.
