Course of

Wax microsculpture for goldsmith

The continuous dialogue we have with companies in the jewellery field often leads the SOA to introduce new disciplines. This is the case with the Course of  Wax Microsculpture for Goldsmith. The world of Fashion, but also of Goldsmith and Jewellery, is investing in the accessory/jewellery in an organic-figurative style. Objects with these characteristics are now in great demand on the market, but its history goes back to the time of ornamentation’s origin. Since it is in our interest, and that of our students, to be close to the needs of the market, we have included this new Course that, through the use of a special technique and a few specific tools and materials, allows us to obtain figurative objects in high definition with stunning results.

A certificate of attendance will be issued at the end of the Course program.

Program

Sculpture of a figurative object using semi-hard waxes; modelling is performed with an electric spatula and steel spatulas. The operations are mainly by ‘accretion’ (addition of wax) and just in few phases by cold subtraction of wax with specific tools derived from orthodontic technology. The aim of the Course is figurative hyperrealism, i.e. the rendering of the image close to the real image down to the smallest detail.
