What is Lost Wax Casting
The ancient technique of lost wax casting has been utilized for millennia to produce jewelry and other metallic artifacts. First, a mold made of sand or plaster is carefully poured over the wax model. Then, the wax is melted away, leaving a void in the mold. Finally, molten metal is poured into the mold, creating a perfect metal replica of the original wax carving.
