Know before you buy
While the statue is heavy enough at 53 lbs to remain stable on a flat, level surface, we recommend placing it on a solid foundation like a stone patio, concrete pad, or a level garden paver to prevent it from sinking into soft soil over time.
The sepia bronze patina is hand-applied and designed to age gracefully. You can keep it clean by gently rinsing it with water and wiping it with a soft cloth; avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that could strip the finish.
Yes, the lost wax casting method ensures a durable, heirloom-quality piece. While it is weather-resistant, you may choose to cover or move it indoors during extreme winter conditions if you live in an area with heavy snow or freezing temperatures to preserve the finish.
Yes, the sculpture is designed for 360-degree viewing. Because it is finished on all sides, it works perfectly as a centerpiece in a garden bed or on a patio where you can walk around it.
The statue measures 16 inches in width and 19 inches in depth. We recommend ensuring your chosen display area has at least these dimensions to provide a secure and balanced footprint.
