WHAT'S THE SILVER PLATING PROCESS?
Silver plating is valued for its durability and ability to resist tarnishing, allowing the Buddhist Crown to maintain its radiant shine for an extended period. The silver-plated finish also offers versatility, complementing various design styles and adding a touch of refinement to any setting.

By choosing the Buddhist Crown with a silver plated finish, you can enjoy the timeless beauty and allure of silver, creating an exquisite and eye-catching piece that is sure to captivate.


The silver plating process steps are relatively straightforward, although they differ depending on what type you're doing — barrel or rack plating. The basic strategy, however, goes like this:

Inspection: Before electroplating, you should always check the part for imperfections — like cold shuts or sharp edges — and amend these issues before starting the process. Otherwise, the quality of the substrate will decrease, and this may cause problems for your customers.
Pre-treatment: Complete any necessary treatments before plating onto your metal part. You should also do an under-plating of copper, nickel or both metals. Additionally, you can add a silver strike or an anti-tarnish coating if there's a particular effect you want to achieve. If you plate a layer of nickel or copper with a 0.0005-inch thickness, the silver should also be 0.0005 inches for a total of 0.0010 inches.
Electroplating: Silver plating involves submerging the substrate into a bath of silver ions. After passing an electric current through the solution, the ions deposit onto the part's surface, coating it in your chosen metal — in this case, silver.

The process begins by placing a copper sheet on a bed of wax, setting the foundation for the creation of the ritual object. The Nepali craftspersons then employ their mastery of hammering, delicately striking the copper to shape it into various forms. This methodical approach allows them to gradually mold the metal, resulting in intricate designs and details that are unique to Nepali art.

Through the hammering and folding process, the copper sheet takes on a three-dimensional quality, enhancing its visual impact. The craftspersons skillfully incorporate embossed carvings, meticulously etching sacred symbols, mantra inscriptions, and representations of revered Buddhist deities. Each stroke of the hammer and each carefully placed fold holds deep spiritual significance, capturing the essence of Buddhist teachings.

The artistry displayed in these ritual objects is a testament to the expertise and devotion of Nepali craftspersons. They bring forth their heritage, cultural understanding, and profound spirituality into every piece they create. The resulting objects not only serve as sacred tools for spiritual practices but also stand as exquisite examples of Nepali craftsmanship.

When you acquire a Buddhist Ritual Object crafted by Nepali artisans, you are not only embracing the beauty of their art but also supporting a vibrant artistic tradition. Each object becomes a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Nepal and a representation of the skill and passion of its craftspersons.

Embrace the magnificence of Nepali artistry and the spiritual significance of the hammered and folded copper in these ritual objects. Let them inspire and deepen your connection to the profound teachings of Buddhism, while also honoring the mastery of Nepali craftspersons.
