However, intricate the design maybe the craftsmen would draw them, reproduce on the copper plate with hammer which was then sand-casted and then finished to a pattern Goldsmiths were employed to make a pattern. Now we employ the most modern and state of art sophisticated engineering technology and equipment using VMC, EDM, Wire cut to give a near zero defect product in both engineering performance, 20 years mechanical guarantees and twenty years finish guarantees on several finishes.
