outsourcing metal pouring

finding a casting house

The process is simple: create your wax model, send it off for casting (metal pouring), and receive the raw metal design back. From there, you’ll tidy, clean, polish the metal, and set any stones.

Outsourcing metal pouring is a fantastic and common option for wax carving jewellers around the world. It’s especially ideal for those with limited space, funds, physical abilities, and it's also perfect for those who have no desire to play with fire & molten metal.

While Metal Bones Jewellery is based in Australia, our online course has enabled over a thousand students worldwide to enrol and learn how to sculpt wax and design unique, high-quality jewellery — without the dangers, complexity and costs of metal pouring.

To help you find a nearby casting house, this blog post lists recommended options from other jewellers.

WORDS FROM OUR STUDENTS

★★★★★

"I took an in-person lost wax course before, but it was a bit too rough for my liking. Luckily, my algorithm was on point and led me to Metal Bones’ online course. I immediately enrolled in the intro course because I absolutely fell in love with her stone-set rings and the precision of her pieces. The amount of free information she includes on top is unbelievable — especially the chapter on pricing. No other course I found covered that and I’ve checked a lot of them. A few months later, here I am — with my own website! I’m so grateful I found this course, it has truly boosted my journey immensely!"

"I got into lost wax casting after starting with traditional metalsmithing. At first, I was drawn to the hands-on process of shaping metal, but wax opened up so many new creative possibilities. I love the freedom it gives me to sculpt intricate, organic designs that wouldn’t be possible with other techniques. I started using wax because I wanted to bring more depth and texture to my work—something that felt both raw and refined. My goal is to keep exploring this craft, pushing my designs further, and blending lost wax with other techniques to create truly unique pieces."

"I’ve been creating electroformed and macrame jewelry for eight years, but I’ve always dreamed of working with silver and gold. Due to chronic pain, traditional silversmithing wasn’t an option for me. A year ago, I discovered lost wax casting, and I was happy to find a way to work with silver that’s much gentler on the body. When I came across Cassandra’s course, I was amazed by how clear and straight forward she made the process. She teaches you how to get started with minimal equipment, and her starter kits take the guesswork out of gathering supplies which is a really nice touch. I’m so excited to see where this journey leads!"

"When I first came upon wax carving it felt really intimidating due to the sheer amount of information and different techniques out there. Cassandra has done an outstanding job of taking that information as well as her hands on experience and condensing it into a fantastic course. It has truly helped me take a leap forward in my work and evolve as a craftsperson!"

"I’m so proud to call myself a lost wax artist! I’ve always wanted to learn this technique and took a class in the States, where the main method focused on carving wax away to create something beautiful. Unfortunately, my mind doesn’t work that way, and I started to think lost wax just wasn’t for me — until I discovered Cassandra’s incredible jewelry. Her work reignited my need to create, and I had no idea that the way she teaches was exactly what I needed. Instead of carving away, she builds her designs organically by adding wax, and suddenly, everything clicked! My goal in lost wax is to keep learning, design alternative engagement rings, and grow as much as I can!"
