Each piece is made with care, just for you.

Lost-wax casting is an ancient art dating back more than 5,000 years, with some of the earliest known examples found in regions including the Levant and South Asia. For thousands of years, artisans have used this process to transform wax into lasting metal objects, carrying a handmade form from one material into another.

At Pinto, each piece begins in wax, shaped and carved by hand in my studio before being cast in metal, transforming a small, handmade form into something made to be held onto.

Every piece is a labor of love, made by my own two hands. I strive to work as sustainably as I can with the resources available to me, incorporating recycled metals wherever possible.
