'Golven' (waves), still liquid in the oven?

The foundry heats up the oven until about 1100 degrees Celsius, resulting in the bronze becoming liquid. Just before the actual adding of the bronze to the molds, it is transferred to a molded cup. This cup is then kept at the right temperature in a smaller oven, just until the moment everything is ready to be cast.
