Click to Enlarge
Mimicking a grand classic found in many Japanese gardens, the Bronze Heron Duet sculpture is beautifully lifelike and evocative. Their open beaks and long legs are hyper-realistic, and their head, neck and wing plumes are so delicately rendered they seem to be fluttering in the breeze. The driftwood on which they are perched is equally naturalistic. This sculpt is a terrific addition to any garden setting inside or outside and will be the grand centerpiece of any tableau. The Bronze Heron Duet is cast by the traditional, Lost Wax Bronze Casting method (links to a full description of the method). This labor intensive and time consuming method of casting bronze statues, ensure pristine quality and vivid detail. This Bronze Heron Duet features intricate, hand forged details with a beautiful brown fire-applied patina. Applying patina to bronze using the French method (fire and heat) is an age old traditional skill requiring expert craftsmanship. Each patina is hand applied and the patination result may vary making each sculpt unique. All bronze statuary will develop a natural patina when left in natures elements. The aged patina on bronzes is often desired, but can be prevented by care and cleaning of the bronze statue by applying beeswax or other polish to prevent a patina from forming. The Bronze Heron Duet is available in the Classic French Brown Bronze patina as shown.
