Hi friends. . .have you ever heard about 'Cire Perdue' or 'Lost wax'? well let me explain.
' Cire Perdue' which is the french word for ' lost wax' is a process of wax casting used in making metal sculptures.
When a model is coated with wax, the solidified wax is encased in a two - layer mold of plaster or clay.
It is then melted or otherwise removed from the mold, and metal is poured into the space where the wax had been.
Oh, I almost forgot, after cooling, the mold is brooken to free the metal object.
