bronzed personalized items

This is the first blog since we came back from the Christmas break and I find it a bit hard to get back to writing. (Use it or loose it)

We create personalized items in bronze, silver and 24 k gold.

Why not eternalize the first school pencil or the mightily chewed one to get you through that last school exam?

A pencil can write an average of 45.000 words. We find pencils everywhere, at school, at home, at the office and so on. Authors and presidents made history with their cedar pencils.

Some famous people that never left home without it were:

Leonardo da Vinci, he frequently sketched in pencil.

Thomas Edison's bright idea was to keep a small pencil in his pocket just to jot down notes. I am sure that your son or daughter have created beautiful drawings or written sentimental words

 with that special cedar pencil that you want to keep it bronzed.

Bronzing has been used for centuries.

 

BRONZED AKUBRA HAT.

BRONZED AKUBRA HAT.

 

The trademark name ‘Akubra’, which is an Aboriginal word for head covering has become an Australian Icon. The shape is identical with the landscape of outback Australia, with a sharply rising and falling, rough, or jagged surface

 

I believe they made over 20 different styles of hats for the new Film “Australia”

 

Our customer was not part of that Film. He traveled across Australia for many years taking accurate measurements of land areas in order to determine boundaries, elevations, and dimensions. The Akubra has protected millions of Australians against harsh conditions like sun, wind and rain.

The hat was on his head 6-7 days per week and became his best friend (beside his wife that traveled with him) On his retirement the wife sent the sentimental worn out hat to be  Bronzed.

The Bronzed hat is now a showcase with many stories to be told.

Why not Bronze your sentimental items?

 

Selectively Chrome-plated glasses

Do you remember a Film called The Matrix?

 

In the film Keanu Reeves was starring as Neo.

“Neo was a young software engineer and part-time hacker who was singled out by some mysterious figures who wantrf to introduce him into the secret of 'the matrix'. The cops also seemed  to be after him, and he took a chance on discovering what he always suspected: that the world was not quite what it seemed to be and that a sinister conspiracy is at work.”

You might remember a bar scene where Cypher said (about his drink): "It's good for two things, degreasing engines and killing brain cells."

The selectively chromed glasses they used for the drinks were Chrome-plated by the Bronzing Studio- Chrometech in Castle Hill.

Chrome plated Terminator Head

Pictured here is the replica Terminator head as portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the later series of The Terminator movies, chrome plated by The Bronzing Studio.

 

The Bronzing Studio-Chrometech performed special effect electroplating
for films including Superman, Star wars, Matrix and the Terminator.

 

"I'll be back." is the famous catchphrase associated with Arnold Schwarzenegger's title charactrer from the thriller film series 'The Terminator'. Did you know that in the original shooting script, the line was written as "i'll come back"?

A survey released determined that the catchphrase "i'll be back" to be the line from a film most commonly used in everyday conversation.

 

chromed mirror finish of the prancing horse

Do you recognise this 'prancing horse' symbol?

This as you may know is an Italian sports car manufacturer based in Maranello, Italy. Founded in 1928, manufacturing only race cars before moving into production of street legal vehicles in 1947.

"The horse was originally the symbol of Count Francesco Baracca, legendary of the Italian air force during WWI, who painted it on the side of his planes. The Scuderia Ferrari logo Coat of Arms of the City of Stuttgart, Scuderia Ferrari left the horse black as it had been on Baracca's plane; however, he added a yellow background because it was the symbolic color of his birthplace, Modena. "

The material of the horse was made of fiberglass and plastic. To have it chrome-plated to that smooth finish was a labour intensive process.

Any material can be bronzed or chrome-plated. We don't electroplate on metal.

As you can see from this large chrome plated statue of the horse plated by The Bronzing Studio, the quality of work that has been achieved, which is expected from our clientele and the high standards of the branding it already portrays.

 

100 year old bronzed baby shoes

"8,000-year-old shoes found in a Missouri cave show that footwear fashion is nothing new - and is in fact much older than anyone thought, scientists said."
"The shoes were found in a cave on a Missouri River bluff near Columbia about 40 years ago, but the relics in the cave were all jumbled up, making them hard to date. However, they are very well-preserved and tell a lot about shoe fashions in prehistoric times."
"The shoes are complete, you can certainly tell which foot they were on. You can feel toe impressions on the inside. They wore out in the same way ours do. We have found repair holes on them."
Our shoes in the picture are only 100 years old. They are bronzed with a 24 k gold finish so they too can stay well-preserved to be passed on to next generations. At the back of the shoes you can see that they had been mended with a thick thread
Yes the people at the Bronzing Studio can help you own a beautiful masterpiece.
You name it, we Bronze it is our slogan.

Make your pride shine

Look at all that chrome.

Almost everything in this car is chrome-plated, from speedo surrounds to air vents, from radio surrounds to door handles. Everything that was plastic is now chromed.
I believe that men and cars have a special kind of bonding. Men are like kids when it comes to cars. Stand around the pub and you will never find a man so talkative when he is talking about his car. I am yet to meet a man who doesn't swear by his car and dreams about owning a glorious automobile. Make your dreams come true and bring all your plastic parts to be chrome-plated.

Memories in bronze, silver or 24 k gold

So what actually do we bronze?

doughnuts, gumleaves,flowers from the wedding bouquet, champagne bottles, corks. Yes you guessed it... Plaster castings of boobs and ......

The weirdest things that we have bronzed were Koala droppings that Japanese tourist bought as key-rings. Souvenir from Australia.
