Category: Jewellery Making Tools

A melt is only as clean as the vessel it happens in. Machined from a solid block of high-density graphite, this crucible brings up to 1kg of gold, silver or copper to pouring temperature without reacting with the metal, and its thermal stability holds through session after session at the bench.

The grooved collar gives standard crucible tongs a positive, secure purchase, and the integrated spout puts the pour where you aim it. Warm it gently on first use rather than shocking it with full heat, and store it dry between melts — treated well, graphite gives long, consistent service.

  • Machined from a solid block of high-density graphite for thermal stability.
  • Features a grooved collar for a secure grip with standard crucible tongs.
  • Includes an integrated pouring spout for improved accuracy when casting.
  • Holds a capacity of up to 1kg for melting gold, silver, or copper.
  • Non-reactive material ensures the purity of your precious metal melt.

Who it's for

William ★★★★★

The solid block machining is what got me—no seams or weak spots to worry about when I’m pushing 950°C for silver. Handled a full kilo pour on my second try without any cracking or weird scaling.

Eva ★★★★★

I’ve melted copper twice in this thing already and the graphite hasn’t cracked or flaked at all—the solid-block machining really holds up. It heats evenly too, so I didn’t get any cold spots waiting for the pour.

Natalie ★★★★★

Handled a full kilo of silver without any issue, and the graphite held up perfectly through multiple pours. No chipping or contamination, just clean melts every time.
