BISHU goes Sins, Aargau!
We’re beyond excited to announce that Lorena Sterman, founder of Fenix Atelier, has invited us to her beautiful studio in Sins to host a special edition of our Wax Carving Workshop!
To all our creative friends in Aargau: come join us for a cozy, hands-on session where you'll design and carve your very own ring.
In a small group of 4–8 people, you’ll be guided step by step through the wax carving process, with personal support and plenty of room for creativity. Snacks, coffee and tea will be provided.
The workshop takes place at Fenix Atelier in Sins (AG) and lasts around 3 hours.
After the workshop, we’ll cast your design in recycled sterling silver and finish it for you – your unique ring will be ready and delivered to you 2–3 weeks later.

Material
Material
We work exclusively with recycled silver, recycled brass and plate the pieces with recycled gold. The entire production takes place in Switzerland and we work with long-term partners and small manufacturers in Zurich, Schaffhausen and Lucerne.
Gold plating:
We gold plate the rings with a 5 micron coating, which is thicker than the usual fashion jewellery, but with gold plating it is always the case that the coating will wear off over time. The good news is that the ring can always be gold plated again, so please contact us if your ring needs to be refreshed.
Delivery time
Delivery time
Silver: After the workshop we will cast the ring and finish it professionally within 15 days.
Gold: The gold plated rings take a little longer, we need 25 working days for casting, processing and coating.
