Crafted Using the Lost-Wax Casting System

The lost-wax system, an ancient technique, was used to create this Vajrasattva statue with exceptional detail and precision.

• Process Highlights:
  1. Wax Model: Artisans sculpt a detailed wax replica of the statue.
  2. Ceramic Shell: Multiple layers of ceramic material form a sturdy mold around the wax model.

  4. Metal Casting: Molten copper is poured into the cavity, taking on the exact form of the original wax model.
  5. Finishing Touches: Once cooled, the ceramic mold is removed, and the statue is polished and treated with the chocolate oxidized patina.
