'Melissae' Jewellery Workshop
This collection is a performative workshop that invites you to connect with the primal mother archetype and feel the warmth of Her flame. In a ritual using fire, water, and bee wax, you will hand-carve a bespoke piece of jewellery to honor your feminine essence.
By working with the lost wax casting method—using natural bee wax—you are participating in a creative tradition that has connected artisans to their craft for approximately 6,000 years. This session offers a dedicated space to slow down and sculpt a one-of-a-kind signature piece through a deeply personal and guided process.
Details:
Date & Time: To be mutually agreed upon
Location: East London, E3 (Bow area)

The workshop includes:
A meditative experience: using bee wax, water, and flame to shape your ring.
One raw emerald stone: to be woven into your design.
Tools: everything you need to create your wax model is provided.
Note: Your wax creation is a model. To wear it as a permanent piece of jewellery, it must be professionally cast into metal. This service is available for an additional fee (see below).
Investment:
Workshop Fee | £180 Reserved upon booking. Covers the 3-hour workshop, one raw emerald, all materials provided.
Casting & Finishing | £80 (Optional): Settled on the day. This covers the professional transformation of your wax model into hand-finished recycled silver. Note: For exceptionally thick or large rings, a small additional fee may apply based on the final weight of the metal.
Personalize your piece:
Additional Emeralds: To adorn your piece, extra stones are +£20 each.
Solid Gold: You may choose to cast your piece in solid gold instead of silver. A quote will be provided on the day based on the final weight of your unique wax carving.
Your finished piece will be ready within 3 weeks:
Studio Collection: You are welcome to collect your finished jewel from the E3 by appointment once it is ready.
Shipping: If you prefer delivery, tracked and insured shipping can be arranged for an additional fee settled once your piece is complete.
