A private, one-to-one jewellery finishing session held in my Cornwall studio, dedicated to the final stages of transforming a cast piece into finished jewellery.

Guided personally by jewellery designer Tamara Gervasio, this experience is designed for those who have already completed a wax carving and wish to take part in the final stages of the making process.

This is a focused, hands-on workshop where you will learn professional finishing techniques used to refine, clean, and polish cast jewellery into its final wearable form.

This session is dedicated to finishing and polishing techniques and is intended for jewellery pieces that have already been wax carved and cast.

Important Information

This session is intended for jewellery pieces that have already been wax carved and cast.

The 1-hour session is typically suitable for finishing one jewellery piece, depending on complexity. Simpler designs may allow time to complete two smaller pieces within the session.

Finished pieces may be ready to take home on the day depending on the complexity of the finishing required.

What You Will Do

You will work directly with your cast piece, exploring the final processes that transform raw metal into finished jewellery.

Through guided making, you will take part in refining and polishing your piece while understanding how finishing techniques affect surface, detail, and final presentation.

Your jewellery moves from raw casting to finished form — revealing its final character and surface quality.
