Manufacturing
We use centuries-old techniques to create truly authentic, unprocessed lighting designs; some of which originate from East India Docks (London) in the 1880s where Davey Lighting was established. The process of sandcasting begins by preparing a mold; a sand mixture is packed around a ‘pattern’ and tamped down, binding the mixture together.
The pattern is subsequently removed, and molten metal is poured into the mold cavity. Once cool, the metal item is separated from the sand mixture. These castings are then machined, drilled, sanded and finished by sandblasting, weathering or polishing.
