Black Arts

Precision Lost Wax Casting, Rooted in Expertise

Our UK, Staffordshire-based foundry specialises in lost wax casting, backed by a deep understanding of metal behaviour and process control. This technical knowledge allows us to consistently deliver some of the highest-quality results available in today’s casting market.


Jewellery-Grade Detail as Standard

Originating from a background in traditional goldsmithing, Black Arts brings a highly trained eye for quality and detail. Over many years, we have refined our casting processes to achieve a jewellery-quality finish directly from the mould.

We believe in both sustainability and profitability, and we willingly invest our time and expertise to help our customers succeed. See how we operate here.


Casting Science Meets Craft

Our process is based on a complete understanding of the science and technology required to achieve an excellent cast. We develop custom casting profiles that produce the cleanest, densest results possible, tailored to your models.

Lost wax casting is one of the most technically demanding casting methods. But its complexity brings benefits: it allows for extremely fine, near net-shape detail, with exceptional surface texture and dimensional precision — model design permitting.


Where Others Guess, We Know

Many casting services simply operate machines and hope for the best — often at your expense. At Black Arts, we rely on technical understanding and precision, allowing us to cast reliably, rapidly, and cost-effectively, every time.

We stand by our work. Every production casting we produce is guaranteed 100% for manufacturing faults, excluding issues caused by design flaws or fundamental design compromises.


Transparent Pricing and Flexible Options

We price our work based on its true value, not on what we think you can afford. Our transparent pricing structure means:

  • We do not mark up metals excessively

  • Clients are welcome to supply their own sentimental metals

  • We accept both one-off and large-run casting jobs

  • Flexible pricing options are available if your needs fall outside our standard matrix


Your Work, Always Protected

We operate under a strict non-disclosure agreement with all clients by default. Your moulds, models, and finished goods:

  • Will never be shared or used in our own materials without your explicit permission

  • Will never be reproduced or distributed to third parties

  • Will always be returned upon request, with no charge other than postage
