Create drawings with images and specifications. 3. Create a positive clay (sculpture is created at enlarged scale, typically 4:1 scale). 4. Make a negative rubber mold from the positive clay original model. 5. Cast a positive plaster for approval and final editing. 6. Cast a negative plaster to proof draft angles and mold release properties. 7. Make a positive rubber mold at a 4:1 scale. 8. Cast a negative epoxy template to be used as master tool for generating 1:1 scale negative front die. 9. Use a reducing, three-dimensional engraving machine to cut the front die at 1:1 scale. 10. Cut the rear die, allowing offset for finished metal thickness. Add gates for channeling molten metal into die cavity and engraved negative logo crest in rear die. 11. Assemble front and rear dies. 12. Inject wax at high pressure to completely fill the die cavity. 13. Trim and chase the wax; remove wax from die. 14. Assemble individual waxes on a tree, typically 5 brooches per tree. 15. Build up the ceramic shell around the wax tree. 16. Fire the ceramic shell, setting ceramic and melting out the wax (thus the name “lost-wax casting”). 17. Place ceramic shell (now with voids left by the melted out wax) in a vacuum chamber and pour molten metal (bronze, sterling silver, 14K or 18K gold) to fill the voids. 18. Break ceramic shell; remove solidified metal casting. 19. Remove gates; sandblast the casting to achieve a uniform finish. 20. Silver solder fittings (pin, latch and pivot). 21. Apply finishes: a. Bronze: Acid etch/two-step rinse/plate with “sepia” finish/hand scrub with cleansing compound/final two-stage rinse/dry/coat with clear varnish. b. Sterling silver: Hand polish highlights/acid etch/two-step rinse/plate with rhodium (a member of the platinum family which imparts a scratch-resistant, bright finish). c. Vermeil: Hand polish highlights/acid etch/two-step rinse/extremely heavy 24K gold (a beautiful color of gold, much richer than most commonly seen). d. Gold: 14K (58.5% gold) and 18K (75% gold) castings are hand polished to achieve desired highlighting. 22. Final inspection, packaging, shipping.
