1. Authentic traditional art of casting bronze from West Africa, called cire perdue or Lost Wax Technique.

2.100% hand modelled in wax, hand cast in bronze, copper and other alloys over a core of clay.

3. In direct lost-wax casting, every object produced is always unique and one-of-a-kind, as the mold is necessarily destroyed as part of the casting process. So, no two products are alike. They can be similar, but never the same.

4. Made in Africa.
