sandcasting
casting rewards experience over equipment, and ours runs generations deep; every form leaves the sand clean and is dressed by hand
Manufacturing — Metal Trends
Manufacturing
Our manufacturing expertise extends to numerous processes. We maintain flagship quality and complete design secrecy by manufacturing both samples and production runs entirely in-house. Our vertical integration makes us swift to respond when a client changes direction, and lets design & manufacturing be tweaked until client satisfaction is maximised.
Materials
The materials we work with are processed and finished in-house, and are fused together when required.
Iron
Aluminium
Steel
Brass
Copper
Wood
Marble
Resin
Glass
spinning, pressing & stamping
under the spinner's lever a flat disc rises whole into a vessel, and under the stamping dies, the same discipline conjures an exact shape
spinning, pressing & stamping
welding & fabrication
the mark of our welders is what cannot be found: every joint is dressed back until the seam disappears into the form
welding & fabrication
hammering
every hammered piece carries its maker's own rhythm in innumerable strikes, so no two surfaces are ever quite the same
hammering
engraving
chitai is a remarkable artform, passed hand to hand through artisans each generation, and the finest of them sit at our workshops
engraving
embossing
embossed relief stands deep enough to catch every change of light, and crisp enough to trace with a fingertip
embossing
acid & laser etching
etching is where our finest detail lives, line-work too fine for any hand tool, held identical across orders
acid & laser etching
polishing
polished on the wheel until the surface reads as one unbroken sheet of light, whether deep mirror or soft satin
polishing
electroplating
done in-house over every curve, its depth measured in microns, its finish and sheen made to hold through years of handling
electroplating
enamel
hand applied by skilled artisans, brought level and smooth; every serving piece is finished to a food-safe standard
enamel
spray coloring
color is layered coat by coat in the booth: gradients that fade seamlessly, patinas and antique tones stained by hand
spray coloring
powder coating
color baked until it becomes part of the metal, even across every face, and ready for years of daily handling
powder coating
decal & sublimation
detail finer than any brush can carry, printed and transferred so every motif sits crisp and true to the artwork it came from
decal & sublimation
resin
colored to any shade a client asks, poured in and levelled glass-smooth, sitting flush with the geometry of the piece
resin
marble & stone
premium slabs selected for the character of their veining, cut, honed and fitted wherever a design calls for stone
marble & stone
woodworking
hardwoods chosen for grain and character, turned and joined into handles, lids and bodies that meet the metal as if grown to it
