Here's a brief overview of the process:
Wax Carving: We begin by carving a wax model of your jewelry piece, sculpting it to perfection with intricate details and unique textures.
Once the wax model is finished, it will be sent to a casting company that will transform your wax model into your favorite gold or platin alloy. An additional session could be arranged for a collaborative finish on your jewellery piece. Alternatively, Francesca can take care of the finishing touches for you, ensuring it's ready for convenient pickup.
Additional option: If you have old jewellery that you don’t use , Let’s upcycle your old jewellery to give them a new life! for more info get in touch.
