Conclusion

3. Technical & Production Details

| Aspect | Information | |--------|-------------| | Casting Method | Lost‑wax (cire‑perdue) casting – a two‑step process: hand‑carved wax model → silicone mold → bronze melt → final hand‑finishing. | | Finishing | 1️⃣ Patination: chemical patinas (liver of sulfur, ferric nitrate) applied in layers.
2️⃣ Polish: selective polishing of ridges to achieve the amber highlight.
3️⃣ Protective coating: micro‑crystalline wax (Renaissance Wax) for long‑term stability. | | Quality Control | Each piece inspected under 10× magnification for casting defects (porosity, seams). Only pieces meeting a 98 % visual defect‑free threshold are released. | | Sustainability | Bronze scrap is recycled within the studio; the silver variant uses re‑melted sterling sourced from certified recycled jewelry. | | Lead Time | Approximately 6 weeks from order to shipment (incl. hand‑finishing). | woodmancastingx casting of virginia shell 03 new
