THE “MAKING-OF-THE ORGANICA-COLLECTION”​
The  "ORGANICA" collection by CORNELIA HENZE, inspired by naturals forms, is  made of bronze using the lost wax technique. CORNELIA HENZE re-shapes  and individually models the wax for each piece. A traditional,  long-established Munich foundry surrounds the wax mould with an  embedding compound and then melts it at a high temperature. The liquid  metal is then poured into the resulting negative hollow mould. Once the  metal has solidified, the embedding compound is removed and the raw  casting appears. Its surface is sandblasted, polished and then  individually treated again by CORNELIA HENZE. Each object is therefore  unique in form and surface treatment with its own visible signature.
