Lost-wax casting is an age-old technique used to make bronze artifacts, a well-preserved ancient example being the two statues of the famous “Riace Bronzes.”
It consists of creating a wax model by using it to make a clay mold. By punching two holes in the clay mold, one at the top and one at the bottom, wax is poured out by heating it and molten bronze is poured in its place, resulting in an identical bronze model. Characteristic of casting with this technique is great precision and fidelity of detail, which is why it is still used for jewelry making.
AtelierA70 is a design studio successor to Bottega d’arte Applicata A70, which, founded in 1970 by Venetian master goldsmith Elio Martella worked and created for the next forty years.
Today AtelierA70 designs handcrafted pieces including novel jewelry, museum merchandise, limited edition mobile sculptures, and interior design objects. The atelier is a melting pot of diverse experiences, always striving for refinement in forms, techniques and materials. His work combines ancient crafts and modern processes, far from the machinery of industrialization and encouraged by artistic research and cutting-edge technology.
