- Goldweights are small objects cast from brass used to weigh out quantities of gold and gold dust. They are cast using a lost-wax casting technique, wherein wax is sculpted into the desired shape and a mold is pressed around the wax model.

Liquid brass is poured into the mold and allowed to set before the caster cracks the mold open and retrieves the finished goldweight.
