Cast and Cost

From Wax to Silver, Your Guide to Casting

Your wax model is ready. But what happens next?

In this practical guide, I’ll take you through the Lost Wax Method and show you exactly what happens when you send your wax design to a caster and turn it into a silver piece.

You’ll get a clear overview of the casting process, from preparing and sending your wax model to receiving your finished silver piece. I’ll also share addresses of casters you can work with in the Netherlands, so you know where to go when your design is ready to be cast.

And, of course, there’s the question everyone wants answered: what does casting actually cost?

Inside the guide, I explain how casting costs are calculated, what influences the final price, and how you can estimate your costs before sending your design to the caster.
