Why use bronze Color? Bronze color refers to the distinctive hue that is characteristic of bronze metal. It is a rich, warm tone that falls somewhere between brown and copper. Bronze has been used for centuries in the creation of statues, sculptures, and various decorative items due to its unique aesthetic appeal.
While the production of bronze statues can be complex and challenging, particularly in the Nepali statue-making industry, the bronze color can still be achieved through alternative methods such as the Bronze finishing process. In Nepal, sand casting is commonly used for creating bronze statues, but the resulting quality may not always meet desired standards. The Lost Wax system, on the other hand, yields better quality but can be prone to damage during the intricate carving process, leading to a decline in its practice.
Despite the challenges faced in creating bronze statues, the Bronze finishing process offers a way for individuals who appreciate the appearance of bronze to still experience its allure. By applying this finishing technique to other materials, such as Aparimita, Buddhist Handmade Statue, Chepame, Amitayus, [sold], individuals can enjoy the look and feel of a bronze statue while preserving the essence of this revered art form.

Lost-Wax System
This Aparimita of Aparimita, Buddhist Handmade Statue, Chepame, Amitayus, [sold] is made by the process of the Lost Wax system. This is a very complicated, time consuming and historic process of making metal sculptures.Which is why it is sometimes called Precision Casting as well. Hence the sculptures made by this process are comparatively expensive. There are many new, advanced and less time consuming methods of casting metal sculptures available as well. But due to the benefits provided by the traditional lost wax system in quality control and customization, we prefer the Loss wax system over Ceramic molding, or sand casting to make our Aparimita.
Below we have tried to illustrate the process of making a loss wax system statue:
The method of metal casting in which a molten metal is poured into a mold that has been created by means of a wax model. Once the mold is made, the wax model is melted and drained away. Bronze statues come to life differently than marble statues. Instead of carving a block or marble, the bronze artist uses the lost-wax technique to make a series of molds, and then pours melted bronze into the final mold to create the sculpture. This method has been around since 4500 BCE.
There are few important steps in lost wax casting process :
Step 1: Sculpting ( It all starts in the studio with an idea, Then figuring out how to realize the vision in clay.)
Step 2: Mold Making.
Step 3: Wax Pouring.
Step 5: Wax Spruing.
Step 6: Shell Dipping.
Step 7: Bronze Pouring.
Interestingly enough Loss wax process is also called Investment casting because after layers have been formed and dried, the wax is melted out of the ceramic tree by using steam (120°C) in an autoclave. This is why it is called "lost wax casting". The majority of the molten wax which can then be regenerated and is reusable.
