Section 17: Introduction To Organic Build Up (Using Melted Wax)

In the final modules of this wax course, I'll be taking you through the organic wax build up method using melted carving wax and gemstones! In this first module I have taken an old signet ring from my studio scrap box and transformed it into a cabochon claw ring as a teaser lesson. Stay tuned in the next few modules for "full ring builds" in different styles. For most of my designs I use a blend of carving hard wax and organic build up, so you'll get a full insight into my world! I have also included a PDF with links to the MOHS Measurement of Hardness Scale, and additional information regarding safe cleaning of gemstones.
