Precision casting from hand-carved wax models, enabling complex three-dimensional jewelry designs and the backbone of our OEM custom production capability.
Lost-wax casting is the workhorse technique of modern jewelry manufacturing — and the backbone of our OEM and private-label service. It enables intricate three-dimensional designs that would be impossible with hand-fabrication alone.
The technique begins with a wax model of the final design — either hand-carved by our artisans or 3D-printed from our CAD studio output. The wax model is embedded in plaster investment, then heated until the wax melts and flows out, leaving a precise cavity.
Molten 925 sterling silver is then poured (or centrifuged) into the cavity, where it cools and solidifies into the exact shape of the original wax. The plaster is broken away to reveal the cast piece, which is then cleaned, polished, and finished by hand.
Lost-wax casting is the only practical way to produce complex 3D designs at scale — making it essential for OEM and private-label production. From our CAD studio, we can prototype an entirely new design in 5–10 days and scale to thousands of identical pieces from a single wax model master.
Our standard OEM workflow: 1. Client brief → CAD design (Rhino/Matrix). 2. 3D-printed wax prototype. 3. Client review and revision (2–3 rounds). 4. Approved wax becomes the production master. 5. Multiple wax replicas are produced for batch casting. 6. Cast pieces are hand-finished, set, and polished.
Bring your design (sketch, photo, or CAD file). We deliver a wax prototype in 5–10 days and a quote on full production within 24 hours.
