The lost wax casting technique is one of the oldest known metal-forming techniques, dating back 6,000 years - it is still widely used for producing jewellery. The technique involves building a mold around a wax model; after the mold is set, the wax is melted out and forms a cavity where the sterling silver flows in. Vitreous enamel is then inlaid into the sterling silver ring and fired in the kiln multiple times. The ring is hand polished and hallmarked.
