Winged Camel Metalworks is a small metalworking studio located in the northern foothills of the Adirondack Mountains in New York State, not far from the Canadian border. The studio has been owned and operated by us, Malcolm and Mary Ann Owen, since 1976. We work with copper, brass, gold and sterling silver creating clocks and other small objects for home and office.
Most pieces are collaborative efforts with Mary Ann creating the theme and layout of the pieces and Malcolm working on the mechanical aspects of production. We each also create independent, one-of-a-kind works: Mary Ann makes jewelry and small sculptures, Malcolm makes large sculptural and decorative work.

Services
Some of the figures are cast from model railroad props and some were carved out of wax by us. Either way we make a mold so we don't need a brand new figure each time. Thus we are able to make multiples of any figure. Once we have the rubber mold we then inject wax into the mold, create a small "tree" for figures, encase the "tree" in plaster, melt the wax out of the plaster in a kiln leaving a perfect negative space in the plaster.
