Sandcasting: Shells and Sea – personal memories turn into exquisite jewelry
A vacation moment, a found shell, and the memory of special days by the sea: In the workshop Sandcasting: Shells and Sea at kubic – jewelry studio in Erlangen, individual pieces of jewelry made of silver are created from these. The event is aimed at beginners and advanced participants and combines creative work with traditional goldsmith techniques.
From found object to personal keepsake
Under professional guidance, a brought or provided shell is molded using the sand casting process. This gives a small object from nature a new, wearable form. From the resulting silver cast, a pendant or a ring can then be created.
Creative craftsmanship in a small group
The small group with a maximum of six participants creates a focused and personal event atmosphere. Calm working, professional support, and direct engagement with the material shape the event experience. Even without prior knowledge, the workshop offers a comprehensible introduction to jewelry design.
Goldsmith techniques with individual results
The focus is on various fundamental goldsmith techniques. Participants experience how a shell form transforms into a unique piece of jewelry. The result combines craftsmanship, personal significance, and maritime memories – a one-of-a-kind item for everyday life or as a special gift.
