Workshop: Jewelry Making

By Fable Bookshop + Cafe

Overview

We will carve and melt our jewelry designs using wax, which is then cast in silver or gold.

Do you still need a Christmas present for a loved one or want to treat yourself to something handmade and unique? Join us for our sustainable Jewelry Making Workshop.

What to expect:

We teach wax jewelry making: a hands-on process where you carve (and/or melt) your design from wax, which is then cast in silver or gold. You’ll be able to shape textures, forms, and ideas into a piece that’s completely your own.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll have a wax piece that’s organic, personal, and completely yours.

Skills you will learn:

• Carving

• Melting

• Filling

• Drilling

• Sawing

• Texturing

When your wax piece is complete, we take care of casting it into silver and giving it its final finish. This includes cutting the casting post, soldering any earring posts, filling, sanding, polishing, and protecting the piece. All of this is done in-house before it’s returned to its creator, you!

How do I receive my final piece?

When your piece is ready, you’ll receive an email notification.

Will my piece cost to make?

That’s entirely up to you!

During the workshop, you’ll weigh your wax piece and we’ll help you calculate an estimate based on the metal you choose. This gives you a first idea of the price. From there, we’ll let you know the final cost, including casting and our work to finish your piece.

Feel free to ask us anything , we’re here to help! <3

About your hosts: @OMIRA

We’re a small Lisbon collective created by Laura and Marie, two jewelers with a shared love for lost-wax jewelry. Together, we bring over 15 years of experience in silversmithing, craft, and art across the Netherlands, Germany, the US, India, and now Portugal. Along the way, we discovered the power of working side by side: slowing down, creating with our hands, and watching a space naturally turn into a place of peace and connection.

We realized how deeply people need spaces like these and how our craft allows everyone to be part of it. We love teaching and helping people connect with their creative side. Lost wax is wonderfully organic and intuitive, making it natural for anyone to uncover their own flow. The process is spontaneous, original, and inherently experimental, every piece ends up truly one of a kind.

Our workshops are relaxed and welcoming: an opportunity to follow your curiosity, lean into the unexpected, and shape something that could only come from you. Plus, we'll also have natural wine and snacks for sale and a groovy playlist, so we can have a fun, crafty, and cozy afternoon with new friends. :)
