Electroforming is a method of fusing layers of copper onto an object using electricity. The copper “skin” is electrically formed when positively charged copper is released and, moving through an electrolyte bath, attracted to an object given a negative charge. It is much like plating in metals but done over a longer period of time (23+ hours), creating an organic looking buildup of the metal with unique textures.
