Know before you buy
The lost-wax method is a traditional technique that allows for intricate detailing while ensuring a solid, high-quality structure. Because it is cast in bronze, the statue is exceptionally durable and designed to withstand outdoor elements for years.
Bronze naturally develops a protective layer over time when exposed to the elements. While the hand-applied sepia and emerald verde patinas are designed for longevity, you may notice subtle shifts in tone as the metal reacts to your specific climate.
Given its scale and weight, we recommend placing the statue on a level, stable surface such as a stone patio, a concrete pad, or a reinforced garden bed. Ensure the ground is compacted to prevent the statue from settling or tilting over time.
Yes. Because each piece is finished with a hand-applied patina, there will be slight variations in color and tone between statues. This ensures that your specific piece is unique rather than a mass-produced replica.
Maintenance is minimal. You can occasionally rinse the statue with clean water to remove dust or debris, and if desired, apply a thin coat of high-quality wax specifically formulated for bronze to help preserve the finish and luster.
