From 1952 to today, Fonderia Artistica Mariani has excelled in quality for every type of processing, from the simplest to the most complex, continuing an innovative path of study and implementation in the field of all plastic arts.

Bronze, silver, white bronze, aluminium, brass and cast iron create our field of action with new alloys specifically created to meet customer needs.

Craftsmanship and the most advanced technology are the key elements of our success, which allow us to reproduce microscopic details, thanks to lost wax and vacuum casting with the Shell method.

THE KNOW-HOW OF CRAFTSMANSHIP WITH MODERN TECHNOLOGIES
FROM THE IDEA TO THE SHAPE, FROM PRODUCTION TO PRESERVATION
OVER 65 YEARS OF HISTORY, EXPERIMENTATION, KNOWLEDGE

ENLARGEMENTS AND FORMING

Clients provide two or three-dimensional models, which can be enlarged. The model can be supplied in any material, from which the negatives will then be obtained.

WAXES

First phase of the production process in which the wax copy of the model is created and retouched. The client can assist and collaborate in this phase to supervise the executive details.

COVERAGE

The wax copy is covered with a thin layer of ceramic which reproduces its surface (Shell Method). The wax is then extracted from the mold by heating in an oven.

FUSION

The metal, bronze or other alloy, in its molten state is poured into the ceramic negative and thus takes the detailed shape of the model we have created or supplied to us by the client.

FINISH

The various metal sections into which the work is divided, emerging from the casting, are cleaned, welded and assembled, until the aesthetic result desired by our client is obtained.

PATINA

The surface of the bronze is oxidized with appropriate chemical substances, copper-based or similar, with the aim of obtaining the color and shades that the client desires.

Watch the whole process!
