Choosing your wax is really about picking the right kit for you, each one comes with a different wax designed to help you carve that specific style of ring with ease. So whether you’re after something subtle and stackable or bold and sculptural, we’ve got the perfect starting point. Here’s a guide to help you pick the right one for your design.
Flat Top
You’ll find this wax shape in our Silver, Gold, and Gemstone kits. It’s our most versatile wax, ideal for creating mini signet-style rings, sculptural details or bombe-shaped designs that are slightly raised at the top. Or you can simply sand the flat top down and create a band style- think of it as a great opportunity to perfect your carving technique.
Available in 5mm and 8mm widths
5mm makes for rings that are refined, ultra wearable, and perfect for everyday pieces.
8mm offers more surface area—ideal if you want to go big on detail or make a statement piece.
The flat top gives you a smooth canvas to get creative with, whether you’re going minimal or going all out.
Round Profile
Found in our Wedding Ring kit, this wax is the go-to for creating classic, comfortable bands with a timeless feel.
Available in 5mm and 8mm widths
The round profile makes it easy to create a ring that is balanced and even for traditional wedding rings or smooth, organic shapes. This wax still has plenty of material to play with, ideal for adding texture.
5mm offers a slim, elegant look
8mm gives you a chunkier base for bolder styles and larger hands
Perfect for couples after a simple style that will never go out of style.
Signet Shape
You guessed it! The Signet wax is found in our Signet kit and is specially tapered to give a natural signet-style silhouette, with a wide top that gradually narrows towards the back for a comfortable, wearable fit.
Create something classic with engraving or gemstones—or go contemporary with bold textures and forms. The flat face is also ideal for capturing imprints with our Imprint Kit.
Choose 10mm for a subtle statement, or 15mm if you want to make maximum impact. The tapered shape means your ring looks substantial, without feeling heavy.
Stacking (Skinny)
Small at just 2.8mm wide but mighty. This delicate wax in our Stacking kit is perfect for minimalist looks, stacking sets, or carving subtle details.
This wax can only accommodate our 1.5mm gemstones—a subtle sparkle that works beautifully with the slim profile. You can still add imprints, but with the smaller surface area, expect a more delicate, textured finish.
Top tip: Sand down the thickness before you send it back to make it extra comfortable for everyday wear.
