Stag Bronze Sculpture
Description
The beautiful, hand-finished Bronze Stag Sculpture adds character and elegance to any dining or drawing room. It’s a stylish, proud, artisanal piece that works as well inside as it does outdoors in a natural garden setting.
The lost-wax process is an age-old technique by which foundry experts pour molten metal into a wax mould to cast novel shapes. The heat from the metal melts the wax and leaves you with the piece, in this case, a lovely stag made from bronze.

Care Guide
- We recommend cleaning the sculpture with a soft brush and wax. If kept outside the statue will, in time, develop a surface tarnish, called a patina. This natural weathering adds character and variation to the work and will distinguish the individuality of your piece
- Naturally occurring deposits might occur as part of the casting process – but they’re easily removed with non-abrasive cleaning products. Protecting the bronze is simple – just make sure not to use too much force (to avoid damaging the character of the patina or the metal itself)
- The Bronzes will have differing patinas* and these will alter and develop over time. These add character and variation to the work and distinguish the individuality of the piece
- While deposits may occur, which are part of the casting process, they can be cleaned off with a soft brush and waxed. This cleaning can help to protect the bronze
- Do not over clean or buff or use any abrasive cleaning products as this will damage the patina and the bronze itself
*Patina is a tarnish that forms on the surface of a metal
