Sterling silver charms ajhjewellery.com

The cans with the wax trees inside are heated in a burnout furnace too over 700degreesC to eliminate the wax.

Silver is melted in the crucible of a centrifugel casting machine.

The centrifuge spins at high speed throwing the molten metal into the mould.

After the castings have been plunged into water to cool them and break the mould, the rough castings are revealed.

Finally after filing, cleaning and polishing we have our flugel horns, as easy as that!!!!!
