The beginning of the process begins with the manufacture of coral crumbs, then mixing with epoxy resin.
The next stage is waiting for complete solidification, which takes 2 days (the work consists of 4 parts), then the work is taken and dusted, a thin layer is removed from the entire sculpture to reveal the texture of the coral, which is very difficult to do without damaging the relief of the sculpture.
The next stage of electroplating is copper plating, which is also a rather troublesome process, and copper polishing.
The final stage is the joining of parts and cleaning and polishing.
