Hand Impressions

 

Hand Castings. The Special clay material is made of a mixture of non-toxic, hypo-allergenic, odourless clay at just the right temperature and moisture level.. This moulding clay  duplicates your child's hand (s)with every wrinkle and crease,  finger and toe nails and even  finger prints.   

This technique is used so that you can get your little ones hands and fingers spread out so you can see just how small they are.

 

 

Plaque Impressions

The third method is the 'Plaque Imprints where Multiple impressions are taken from one container or clay and cast into one piece of cement.

 

 

All Impression and Casting material have been tested and then used for years therefore totally safe for babies. There have been no reactions reported and we have created hundreds of castings thus far.

The biggest difference between the 3 techniques is that the hand impressions and Plaque impressions are made from material that is reusable to a certain point and only takes a few minutes to take the impressions.

While the alginate is not reusable  it  can take just a little more time, for measuring and mixing and only another minute for the alginate to set. Thus submersing the whole hand, or foot to create statues of a full fist, wrist, arm and foot with ankle using this technique.

 You be the judge of which one you prefer. Our products are mainly priced around the time it takes to create these beautiful works of art. The hours involved from trial and error, we believe our products are priced quite reasonably. So we have done the research, the trial and error for you and all of the time involved to create them.  

 

  Our technique for the bronzing of all of our castings and our Cameo Castings have become a very popular part of our products..

All Castings can be finished with Gold,  Silver, Copper, Bronze, Antique bronze, antique pewter, Antique Silver,Pearl and Chrome and many more!

Most Finishes in our shadow boxes are made of a special mixture of a  metallic wax polish,

which creates the look of a solid metal casting, but for a fraction of the cost. We can also have your castings bronze plated (the same procedure as having baby shoes bronzed), we also can have your castings reproduced in real bronze metal and other metals by our local foundry.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or  to set up an appointment.
