Frequently asked questions

View all questions and answers
Can I start with just an idea, sketch or photograph?

Yes. That is enough for an initial discussion. We will agree on any measurements or models needed later.

How much does a bespoke casting cost?

Price depends on the model, mould, material, size, quantity and finish. Share your idea and any files for a tailored proposal.

Do you make one-offs or small editions?

A unique piece, prototype or small edition can be a starting point. Shape, size, detail and quantity determine the approach.

Can an existing ornament be restored or reproduced?

An existing piece may be the basis for restoration or reproduction. Photographs, dimensions and sometimes a scan help us assess the possibilities; permission to reproduce should be clear.

How long does a project take?

It depends on the design, preparation and finish. We discuss a schedule after reviewing the project.
