The ceramic copy will be hollow and Tiffany jewelry

The ceramic copy will be hollow and you will have to test it for holes before pouring the molten metal. The wax can be reused so make sure to safely collect it during this step.

 

The molds used for casting jewelry allow a great amount of detail. When the mold is finished, you are going to fill it with wax to create a wax copy which will then be coated with sand and silica. This ceramic shell will then be heated so that the wax is melted out. Generally, the sculpture of the piece is created using wax though some prefer having a metal master copy in case of mistakes. You are going to create the mold using the original. Lost-wax casting involves a number of steps. If followed properly and with precision the artist will find the process enjoyable. Before you begin, you will need to come up with an idea for the piece of jewelry. Many of these companies may overcharge, the cost of commerce, so if you have the resources and ability you might be better of casting your own jewelry. There are several companies and individuals willing to cast the piece for you for a price. When making jewelry this way, the caster will be able to make identical pieces quickly and efficiently.

 

Investment casting is another name of this casting jewelry method and both are acceptable terms it just depends on the speaker's preference.
