Metalcaster Artfully Handles Game of Thrones


Set in a fantasy world complete with dragons, witches and mummy-like “white walkers,” HBO’s smash hit “Game of Trones” is a show that


leaves no detail unaddressed. To that end, many of the main characters carry swords that are much more elaborate than simple props.


Te show, which is filmed primarily in Northern Ireland, features a number of sword handles that have been produced by Dublin’s Bronze Art Fine Art Foundry. Before each season, the HBO production team


provides sculpted versions of the handles. From these models, the Bronze Art Foundry team creates molds and investment casts the pieces in


bronze. (Te blades are forged steel.) Characters Jaime Lannister, Joffrey Baratheon and Jon Snow own the swords shown here.
