<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 9611990, member: 56"]Cast with subsequent handwork? The exterior decoration could be chased. The overall pattern cast? There are lines there that look too crisp for casting to my eye, but I could be wrong. I'm trying to visualize how it might have been formed. I don't know enough about casting, but, if cast you have to be able to remove it from the mold and that's going to be difficult if the inside walls curve outward. Just a multi-stage process I guess. Maybe cast and then pressed?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
