Chasing
Chasing is a very important step in the production of a bronze. The individual cast parts are welded together, parting seams are removed, holes caused by the casting process are sealed in order to remove the fireclay core, and then finished with specially manufactured tools such as punches and chisels.
Artistic understanding is required for this work. The artists' ideas are realised in the best possible way. The surfaces of the works can range from cast-grey, ground, brushed to polished, each with its own unique character.
