Thursday October 17th, 3-7pm is the last Kingston Farmers Market of the season - come out and say hello!
 

2 silver cast rings, 2 blue wax cast rings, drawing of chickens on paper, 1 yellow mould. 2 finished rings: Gold and Sterling Rough Cut Concave wedding bands.

How are those made? 

I make an original ring either out of wax or silver and then I have it sent to a casting house for a mould to be made. Once I have a decent mould I can have more castings made of the same piece, or have more waxes that will later be used to make custom sizes. It all sounds simple, but I assure you cleaning up each piece is labour of focus and love. Each cast is slightly different and can require different clean up tools. The rings can then be stamped and polished.

I will be vending at the Kingston Farmers Market October 10th & 17th, 3-7pm.

Thank-you to everyone who visited my booth at the Kingston Farmers Market this summer! It is always a delight to vend at this local weekly event. I will not be at the next few markets, as I am getting ready for busy fall season. If you had a favourite in mind and cannot wait until October send me a message and I will let you know what I have in stock!

I will be back at the KFM for the last few markets of the season.
