Seven Things People Ask Us to Cast
Pets, mascots, cars, characters, buildings, hands and the occasional idea nobody has had before. Each one has its own casting problem.
Send a reference, a rough idea, or a photograph. We will tell you honestly whether it will cast well.
The whole argument, in one line

7 what people commission
Every page says what does not work in silver, because plenty does not.
Pets
By a distance the most commissioned thing we make, and usually the one that means the most. Often it is a memorial, which changes how carefully we handle every part of it.

Mascots & Logos
Companies commission these for milestones, retirements and the kind of award nobody throws away. A solid silver version of your own mascot is difficult to put in a drawer.

Cars & Vehicles
Not a generic model of that make. Your actual car, with your plate, your wheels and the modification you spent a summer arguing with.

Characters & Original Art
People ask us for characters constantly. Here is exactly what we do, and what we do not, without the vagueness this subject usually attracts.

Buildings & Places
A first house, a family business, a church, a stadium, a boat house. Architecture casts unusually well because it is mostly flat planes and hard edges.

Hands & Impressions
Almost always for a new baby, and sometimes for a memorial. Either way the appeal is exactness — this is the hand at the size it actually was, in a metal that does not change.

Something Else Entirely
A meaningful proportion of what we make does not fit any of the above, and those are usually the most interesting pieces we produce.
