A NOTE FROM THE ARTIST ABOUT MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUE: "All of our pieces are made out of Lead Crystal and Argentium. We use the lost wax casting method. All handcarved by us in wax then a mold is poured around the wax, when the mold is set we melt the wax out leaving a perfect cavity for our material to be poured into. All of our pieces are a 1 time mold. The LC and silver are cast separately, we fix them together using a clear epoxy. When the LC comes out of the kiln we grind the backs flat and sandblast the front. We cast the ss (using centrifugal arm caster),file and polish it. The LC is fully backed by the silver to give a unique glow in all light sources."
