A Cast of Characters presents
hand cast bronze hardware for your cabinets and your home. (Click
on pictures to enlarge them.)
We hand
carve them
in bas
relief (low relief) in wax, then we cast each piece in bronze by
the lost wax method ( click here for
explanation ). Approximate
dimensions are given in each category , oval head screws are
included with each piece. Mary Ann
Dabritz
has been casting
for more than 20 years. The pulls and hooks shown here were
prompted by client insistence that they wanted her
sculptural work on their cabinets. If

Testimonial
"Personally speaking, as an art teacher, I really
admire the dedication and
physical demands required of casting. Such an old
craft that's so little
used or taught nowadays. Rarely do you see artists
take the time to share
techniques and educate the public. Your web page is
wonderful in that
viewers instantly realize how much is involved w/casting,
and must
appreciate that your prices are very reasonable!
Moreover, your work is personal and unique, with options of commissioned work!
Truly a departure from today's commercialized mass
production!

Testimonial"Mary Ann Dabritz possesses a rare talent. Her miniature bronze sculptures have charm and a style that breathes life into their subjects. She is a joy to work with on commissions - attentive to the client's desires and patient with communications about the project. It is an honor to own one of her pieces.
