When I was a kid, there were foundry s that would sand cast things like that when they were casting batches of other products. Brass or bronze would be used, and in those days it wasn't expensive. My grandfather had a set of oarlocks cast for less than 10 dollars in the early 70s. Those guys could just knock it out.

I had a part of a 200 year old lock set cast about 10 years ago, It was finely finished and cost about 150 dollars. The guy was a real artist. You just need someone who can sand cast.
