| Frequently asked questions |
|
| Q. Is the procedure safe? |
| A. Yes, we use a natural non-toxic alginate to make the moulds which gives fine fingerprint definition. |
|
| Q. How long does the process take? |
| A. The material for the moulds sets quickly approximately 30 - 40 seconds, however we need time to make up the mixture and settle mother and child. The actual casting into solid bronze is a lengthy process and the finished product should be ready for delivery in 8 weeks. |
|
| Q. How do you prevent the child wriggling? |
| A. It is natural for children to wriggle a little but as the material sets quickly it prevents most movement. If we are not happy with the result we will repeat the mould at no extra cost. |
|
| Q. What if we want a number of impressions made? |
| A. Each mould is a "one off’ so we would mould as many impressions as required. |
|
| Q. Are the castings in a frame? |
| A. Baby Bronzes are free standing, solid bronze hands and feet which do not require framing, in fact handling enhances them. |
|
| Q. Do Baby Bronzes have a guarantee? |
| A. Yes, we guarantee Baby Bronzes as solid bronze with a lifetime guarantee. |
