    Fantastic. Caroline is the best. The wax carving (and metal work after your piece is cast) is fun, gratifying, and even meditative. You’ll end up with a beautiful ring with a stone setting that you made!

    A really excellent class for learning the basics of stone setting in wax - Emilie is also a great resource if you have more specific questions about more complex settings in wax, once you have a good feel for things. I gained a lot of confidence from this class to move beyond what was covered in class on my own. Highly recommended.

    This way a great class I really enjoyed it. The time went by too fast. The teacher was very knowledgable and gave clear / details instructions. She also took time to check in with everyone and even help brainstorm through some of our projects. The studio is a great space and the big ol' fat cats were fun to see too ;) Thanks I hope to join another class in the near future.
