I casted in copper because these were test pieces and i have many copper bowls that were given to me and intentionsions of being mellted. the patterns casted with a porris rough texture,this colud of been because i used old metal that probably had other metals in it, ive come to this conclusion because when i was melting the copper my metal was poping everywhere.
