The Process
All our creations are made in Brass or Bronze using techniques like the traditional Indian Sand casting or using lost wax casting. These techniques use a negative form in which molten metal is poured. An initial sculpture in wax, clay or other such materials is used to create a mold. The metal has to be heated to upto a 1000°C and brought to a liquid state to get it ready for the pour. After the final stage of chisiling away the outer core, the metal is ready to recieve finishing touches and finally patinated.
