first of all, your designs are awsome! my question… all designs are developed from jewerly wax? I'm interested in ear cuffs, ear wraps & spirals. I was wondering if your company design such ear jewerly? if so, I would like to see a demonstration of that on your website, if I should design such a design, could I send it to your company to create?
I live in ohio, is this jewerly wax available at a craft store? or will I have to purchase from your company?
Yes, most of our designs are created from wax…..some are fabricated starting with stock gold or silver. As a matter of fact I am working on putting a video together showing the entire process of lost wax casting. If you send us a drawing of your design with approximate dimensions we can get you a price quote. http://www.stuller.com has wax for carving. If you don’t want to set up an account with them I can ship you some wax.

Finally, a jeweler with a price list for repairs. Appleton isn’t so far from Madison. Now I have a place to go. Thanks for your honest business practice. Love your designs. Found you via Wisconsin Made.com
We have a number of rubber molds (in which to make “waxes”) . We wish to have bronze, non-porous (so they readily accept plating) castings made, usually 15-20 of each. If you feel that you wish a new customer and are in a position to make “short runs” please contact us. The molds will usually make castings weighing 1-2 ounces.

Alan,
Yes, send your mold to us and we can cast them. There are some different casting alloys we use that might work out better than bronze.
