Pewter casting is a technique that uses the properties of water and fire to create various patterns in metal. It's been used for thousands of years to create jewelry, sculptures and other decorative items
Water is used to melt down the pewter into a liquid state that can be poured into molds. The object placed in the mold will then harden after sitting in an oven
Fire is then used to burn away any excess pewter, leaving behind a part that has been left untouched by the water. This gives it a rough appearance and makes it easier to sand down smooth once removed from the mold.
