Casting in small format
Bronze is born in fire: wax model, mold, liquid metal and, at the end, a patina the artist decides on. Small bronze sculptures for sale under 500 euro suit those who value a material that carries weight even in small dimensions.
Bronze is cast by the lost-wax process, in which a wax model is embedded in ceramic, melted out and filled with metal. In small format, miniatures, animal figures, reliefs or abstract objects are usual. The surface receives a patina in brown, green or black that shines or stays matte depending on treatment. Even a palm-sized bronze lies surprisingly heavy in the hand.

Edition and cast number
Bronzes are often made in numbered editions. Look for notes such as number, signature and foundry mark, which tell you about origin and edition size. Ask about dimensions and weight. A dry soft cloth is enough for care. Over time bronze darkens, which belongs to its character. If you like metal, a related selection awaits there. A piece of bronze feels weighty even at small scale, which helps when planning its location.
