Metallic Aluminium Reindeer Figurine

A collectors dream, this figurine is rich in texture and detail. It has been made by artisans from Moradabad, a district in Uttar Pradesh, using the popular sand casting technique. Sand casting is a process of metal casting that is very efficient. Around 60% of metal products are produced using this ancient technique. The process involves making molds of sand in the desired shapes. The mold then gets filled with the metal of choice. Borax is added to the clay surface to prevent the metal from sticking. The resultant offering is true to life and exclusive. Moradabad is home to a unique craft cluster of metal workers, comprising over 500 artisans. The artisans here have been creating magic with metal since centuries.
