The Lost Wax Process

The stages to the lost wax casting process are to make a mold, pour the wax, chase the wax, create a ceramic shell, de-wax and pour the metal, chip & sandblast the cast metal, weld all the pieces together, chase the metal, and apply the patina.

HISTORY OF BRONZE AND THE LOST WAX PROCESS

The lost wax method of casting bronze is at least 6,000 years old. It was used in most of the ancient cultures, and without it the bronze masterpieces of Greece, Rome, Egypt, and the Near East could not have been created. It has always been employed for casting gold and silver as well. Today's lost wax method is used to produce nearly all bronze sculpture and is based on the ancient principles.
