wax models
Wax models are detailed sculptures made from wax that serve as prototypes or replicas of objects, often used in manufacturing, art, and design. In jewelry making, artisans craft wax models to visualize and refine designs before casting the final piece in metal. The wax allows for intricate detailing and easy modifications. After the wax model is completed, it is typically used in a process called lost-wax casting, where the wax is melted away and replaced with metal, resulting in a precise, durable final product. This technique ensures high accuracy and craftsmanship in the finished item.
