Product Description

The technique used for this replica of Rhyton with Sphinx protome from the Borovo treasure is molding with brass. Then the brass is hand-carved to form fine details of the vessel. Next step is covering the brass molding with liquid nickel to provide a stable and durable subsurface for the final finish. The final finish cover of the object is made with gold and silver in a special bath, which creates the glamorous and exquisite look of the replica treasure. The replica made with brass molding and gold and silver finish is heavier than replica made through the “galvanoplastic” technique.
