matrice
Our case study will show the manufacturing of an authentic Pug Carlin Dog Limoges pill box by the top Limoges manufacturer; PPA. It all starts with P. ARQUIE’s artistic creation. He creates the matrix with his own hands from a plaster block.  
mother cast making
Then the mother cast is created. The mother cast is composed of 4 pieces and is used to make the main cast for pill box production. The mother cast must be greased and then filled with plaster.
 
Main fabrication cast
After a short delay, the mother cast can be opened so that the main production cast can dry. When the 4 parts constituting the main production cast are dry then the boxes can be created.
