What are your castings made of?
The vast majority of our castings are produced from high-grade, solid metal. Certain other items
are cast in either solid jewelers bronze or sterling silver. All of these metals meet or exceed
the established standards set by the FTC, respective to alloy content. In all cases, our medallic
products are individually handcast by highly talented personnel.
