Special manufacturing processes

This impressive coffee and tea cup was made using several exceptional production processes:

Electroforming or electroforming

Electroforming is one of the electroforming methods that allows for the creation of three-dimensional jewelry that is incomparably lighter than if the items were made entirely of silver. Using an electric current, the metal is built onto a wax model in a galvanic bath in which silver is dissolved. The wax is then melted from the model by exposure to high temperatures.

Enamel filigree technique

Crafted using a delicate enamel technique, the product is covered with the finest twisted silver wires that form a relief pattern on the surface. A pattern is then applied along these contours with enamel, which is then painted with glaze paint. It's a manual and very time-consuming process, but the resulting object is a true work of art!

gilt

Gilding (gilding) is the application of a thin layer of gold (from fractions of a micrometer to several micrometers) to an object for decorative, protective, or protective and decorative purposes.
