Jewelry Making Workshops
Each week, we host jewelry making workshops in our Studio in the iconic pencil works factory in Greenpoint, Bk. Giving a behind the scenes look into how we make our jewelry at Seelye.
The workshops are centered around the art of lost wax carving and casting. We provide all materials and post production services to create a one-of-a-kind Seelye Root Stacker. To be later returned for you to take along your journey.
All levels are welcome, specifically beginners!

Wax carving and casting is a 6,000 year old tradition, allowing you to both create with your hands and utilize gifts from mother nature, to put something into the world that has the opportunity to last for generations to come. It is our absolute joy to have an opportunity to share with our community an art form that we find so sacred.
It is the act of carving your piece of jewelry out of wax, followed by melting down metal and pouring it into the space where the wax once held…creating a perfect replica of your piece.
In our workshops, you do the carving and we do the metal casting in post production services.
Our Seelye Root Stackers are very simple bands that are at the core of our workshops. They are thin rings meant to be stacked and built upon. With each event, new designs and memories are created. Although the Root Stackers are ever evolving, we hope they offer a daily reminder when worn that you are safe to create, connect, and simply be, as we go forth on our journey.
