All your questions answered

• What can I make with the kit?

  You can make anything from a ring, a necklace pendant, cufflinks, charms, even a fabulous pet tag for Mittens! Use the enclosed wax to carve and shape your design, and we'll cast it in solid sterling silver (or other precious metal)!

  Each 'Casting Code' is for a single jewelry item, and each kit can be used to create unlimited pieces forever! Simply submit each item online, and return to us. Need more wax for your kit, top it up in the Makers Table shop.

• Can I make more the one piece?

  As many as you want. Do note, however, the casting code purchased with a kit is single use only. To submit multiple pieces, head over to the submission form. You can pay for additional castings there and then - simple. 🤩

• Can I cast in gold or platinum?

  Yes. 🤩 The prices you see are for silver. For non-silver we base the price on the weight of your wax to the nearest 1000th of a gram. This means that you only pay for what you create, and the process is just as simple as for silver.

  Pay nothing up front. Once we receive your creation, we will weigh it and provide you with a quote. If you're happy, you can pay and we'll get casting. If not, you can switch back to silver for no additional charge, select a different base metal, or even add plating.

  The metals we offer are:

  • 925 Sterling Silver
  • 10ct Yellow Gold
  • 10ct White Gold
  • 10ct Rose Gold
  • 14ct Yellow Gold
  • 14ct White Gold
  • 14ct Rose Gold
  • 18ct Yellow Gold
  • 18ct White Gold
  • 18ct Rose Gold
  • Platinum
• Can I add stones?

  Yes. We sell Diamonds, Lab-Grown Diamonds, and Cubic Zirconia (in a variety of colors) off the shelf. We can special order pretty much anything else, and you can even send your own stones along with your wax.

  Make sure you mark the wax with a sharpie and/or include a sketch so we know just where to set them. We do a flush set as standard but whatever you're looking for, rest assured we'll ice your creation to perfection!

• How long does the process take?

  The time can vary depending on a number of factors. We aim for 3 weeks from the moment we receive your wax. However, the more complex your specification, or if we are experiencing a slight production backlog (such as right after Christmas), the timeline can be slightly extended.

  In any case, we always work as fast as we can to get your jewelry creations back to you.

  If you must have you piece by a certain date, such as a wedding, please let us know as soon as you can.

• Is this suitable for children?

  Yes, but only with adult supervision. The kit does contain sharp tools and can only be purchased by anyone over the age of 18.

  There are plenty of methods to shape the wax that are child-safe, and it's a fantastic way to learn new skills and express creativity. Play safe, and have fun.

• How do I get more wax?

  Through The Makers Table. In addition to hundreds of guides and technique videos, there you can purchase wax refills, more prepaid return envelopes, and everything to fully replenish your kit! We're all about ethical consumption and personal choice so we designed the kit to last and to allow you to create as much or as little as you want!

• What are the different casting types?

  We have three different casting types to categorise any jewelry creation that we receive. The differences between each casting type is simply the limit on 'wax weight', and whether it is for 'single item jewelry', or 'paired item jewelry' (such as earrings or cufflinks, not two rings).
