Details

If you want a top of the line casting process, the Delft Clay Method is a highly refined form of sand casting that substitutes genuine Delft clay from Holland for ordinary casting sand. Invented by Hans Karreman, a Dutch goldsmith, the use of Delft Clay is much finer than casting sand. This provides remarkably sharp and highly detailed castings in gold, silver, copper-based alloys, pewter etc. Castings require very little finishing work. Once the piece has been casted, the clay can be reused. This is a cold-molding process, molds can be made from patterns composed of wood, wax, epoxy, plastics, and of course, metal. Because this is a type of sand casting, it is best suited for producing castings without pronounced undercuts.

Features:


  • Use to create sharp and highly detailed castings in gold, silver, copper-based alloys, pewter etc.
