Through carving, shaping, sculpting, melting, and sanding, you'll create an original piece that reflects your own aesthetic and personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe workshop is inspired by the same process I use when developing jewelry for ASTERISK. Organic forms, unusual surfaces, and personal interpretations are encouraged. No previous jewelry-making experience or drawing skills are required. Curiosity is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the workshop, your wax model can be professionally cast in solid 935 silver and carefully finished in my Berlin studio. Once polished and completed, your unique piece will be ready to wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWorkshop Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e€220 per person\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4-hour studio workshop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeld in English, German \u0026amp; Korean\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaximum 8 participants\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for beginners and all experience levels\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocation: Berlin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo previous jewelry-making experience is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIncluded\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccess to all tools and wax materials during the workshop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePersonal guidance throughout the design and making process\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreparation of one wax design for professional casting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional cleanup, finishing, and polishing after casting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTea, coffee, and light refreshments\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAdditional Costs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSilver and casting costs are not included in the workshop fee and are calculated separately after the workshop based on the size, weight, and complexity of your finished design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs precious metal prices fluctuate, the silver cost will be calculated according to the current market rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor reference, most rings and small jewelry pieces typically incur approximately \u003cstrong\u003e€50–80 in additional silver and casting costs\u003c\/strong\u003e, although larger or heavier designs may exceed this range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe final cost will be confirmed before your piece is sent for casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Can Be Made?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParticipants are welcome to create a ring, pendant, pair of earrings, or another small wearable object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe focus is on creating a piece that feels personal and expressive rather than following a predetermined design.
