Stage I, How a bell is made
The core of the bell
Our foundry uses a bell casting
technique based on the centuries-old tradition of bell-making, unchanged for
hundreds of years. It is often called the lost
wax method.
The first stage of
the bell formation is the formation of its interior, the so-called the core of
the bell. It is made of brick and clay, its final shape is obtained by means of
a wooden rib that forms a bell profile unique to every bell-foundry. Once formed, the core is
allowed to dry.
