Unique know-how and excellence
-
Model creation
Whether from photos or a 3D printed scan, it all starts with sculpting the model that will be used to make the mold.
-
Mold making
Plaster molds are made from the sculpture. Depending on the piece, the mold is more or less complex: 2 or more parts.
-
Casting and cleaning
Earth is poured into the mold. When the thickness is ideal, the surplus is emptied. The piece can then be removed from the mold and cleaned.
-
Firing the pieces
When the piece is dry, it is fired a first time. The result is a ceramic bisque ready for decoration.
-
Decorations
Decorations are created using engobe (pigmented clay) or glaze (transparent or colored glass layer), as close as possible to the originals.
-
Finishes
Depending of the piece, return to the kiln before finish: base, wax, patina, etc. to give a unique historic look. The piece is finished and packaged.
