Welcome to the France Casting Web Site!

France Casting is going through some changes! Diane L. France, Ph.D., D-ABFA has been molding and casting anatomical replicas (and other things) for over 30, and now it is time for a change. Many of you have met Shane H Walker, M.A., and if you have called France Casting in the last 5 years, you have almost certainly ordered casts through him. He has been the manager of the business for 5 years and is committed to incredible customer service and in maintaining the highest quality casts. Because he is so committed to quality, he will keep the name France Casting. Diane will still be making the molds, and has started another company, France Custom Casting, in which she will accept forensic casting and custom molding orders. We encourage you to still order casts from the National Museums of Kenya with us or directly through NMK. Their fossil casts are the best!! If you have questions, please contact Shane Walker at francecasts@earthlink.net. Thank you for your continued business!

France Casts are better than bone!

Better than bone for teaching!
Students are brutal. Our casts are more durable than teeth or dry bone but yet have wonderful detail! A real bone is the only copy of a unique item, and if it’s broken, some of the information is lost. If a student puts a France cast down hard, you won’t cringe!

Better than bone for museum displays!
Many individuals are now uncomfortable seeing real bone on display in a museum. Use a cast! Use the same bone pathology in two different displays!

Better than bone for human identification!
You cannot have standards for age identification that are real bone. We need accurate casts that precisely represent standards. France casts are washable so they can be used in any situation!

France Casts are not mass produced!
Each cast is hand made and of museum quality! Each cast is inspected at least five times by three different individuals before it is signed, boxed, and shipped to you. We are proud of the quality of each cast, and will not take shortcuts. It takes more time, but the results are worth it.

Each cast is unconditionally guaranteed!
If you are dissatisfied with one of our replicas, you may return it for exchange or refund. No hassle, no restocking fees, no “only for store credit.” We want you to be satisfied!

Note: if the cast was damaged in shipment, please notify us and the
shipper.
