Lost Wax Cast

Specification:  Must be made from a lost-wax cast.  It was first shaped with modeling wax, then placed in a crucible and filled with plaster.  The plaster cast is then placed in a kiln which evaporates the wax.  Then the silver is pored and the product is removed from the plaster.  An interesting note is that I used the sprue base to make the stand that it is propped up on.
