When bronze was first used for decorative hardware in the XVII century, it was originally sand cast. Today our company still uses this traditional form of casting as well as the Lost Wax process, which gives much finer detail to the castings.
 
Most of our products are still individually hand chased by craftsmen using methods originally used back in the XVII century. This accentuates the detail of the pattern before we carry out the actual finishing process.
 
Our finishes are also very traditional. Even though we do not use mercury gold plating process today for obvious environmental reasons, our nitrate gold is amazinglyclose the XVIII century Mercury Gold finish which can still be seen on the decorative hardware in the Palais de Versailles.
