Here’s a Harry Potter-themed pendant I sculpted for my partner, inspired by a design I found on the web (whose author I couldn’t find unfortunately). It was “lost wax cast” in brass by the folks over at Solyfonte (http://www.solyfonte.com/). No further polishing was done on the piece, and I was astonished by the accuracy and detail preservation. It shows some grain but I like the looks of it. I finally did a little patina with a salt & vinegar bath but mostly brushed it off later… it’s still there, darkening the cavities a bit.
