Subject notes
Before an object could be cast, it had to be modelled in wood or plaster by a pattern-maker. If a large number of copies were to be made from the mould then a cast-iron copy was made. Pattern-makers' skills were essential to creating high quality end products.

Ballantine's provides original metalwork, restoration and refurbishment to existing metalwork worldwide. Its range of over 250,000 patterns includes fencing, monuments, post boxes, lamp posts, manhole covers and extensive ornamental structures.
