The Marcel Proust Busts are made of bronze. Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin (more info on this)
When we make the busts, we use the traditional lost wax method, the so-called 'a cire perdue' method, with which it is possible to pour also quite complicated shapes in bronze
The production of the busts differs almost nothing compared to the production in Proust's time. The production of the images is done by Sala Bronsgieterij in Arnhem in the Netherlands.
