Initial casting

Initial casting is a term used for the earliest models of Old Design Feather (XL), the production process differs from other Feather (XL).Initial casting was created using plaster mold rather than the rubber mold. Since plaster mold is not reusable and can only be used once, each feather item from the earlier time is unique.
Initial casting existed for models such as Plain Feather (XL), Gold Top Feather (XL), and Gold Top Feather (XL), and history of Feather (XL) pendants began with these models!
The initial casting is characterized by an overwhelming sense of presence. The carving is deeper, even the feather lines are well carved. It is also larger than the current model with a measurement of nearly 57mm.
The initial casting is a very rare item, as there is very limited supply circulating in the market.
