by the way - I usually go from a wax model to silver, so that is something I DO know how to do. at least
in NYC! in the jewelry district, there are mold makers who will make a rubber or silicone mold from
the wax model, and then cast it in silver or gold. There are also many casters in Rhode Island. I
don't know where you live, but if you want to have your models made in silver, that can certainly
be done. there are technical requirements, though, as to size - I am talking about jewelry and small
objects. Also silver is very expensive - we make our models hollow; sometimes we have to
make them in two parts and then solder the silver parts together.
happy to answer any questions about silver casting -
