Sand Casting
Sand-casting is a time-honored metalworking technique that celebrates both creative vision and skilled craftsmanship. The process begins with the creation of a pattern — a handcrafted replica of the final form — made from materials like wood, metal, or plastic. This pattern is carefully pressed into a bed of molding sand, a tactile blend of silica, clay, and water, to capture every nuance of its shape.Once the pattern is removed, it leaves behind a hollow impression in the sand. Molten metal is then expertly poured into this cavity, a moment that transforms raw material into form. As the metal cools and solidifies, the temporary sand mold is broken away, revealing a finished casting born from fire, earth, and human hands. Each piece carries subtle marks of its making, a testament to the artisanal process that shaped it.
