Bronze is the one of the most popular metals for casting metal sculpture; casting bronze sculpture is commonly known as "bronze". It can be used for statues, reliefs and figurines, as well as bronze elements mounted to other objects. Bronze is considered as one of the oldest alloys used to make utensils and weapons over 5000 years ago. It is believed that the artisan ship and the techniques were quite the same and advanced as they are today. Nowadays, bronze is attracting many modern artists and clients with royal aesthetic and metal texture and delicate details. Dealing with bronze sculptures involves a great level of complexity and high degree of precision.
The bronze alloys have the unusual ideal characteristic of expanding slightly before just solidifying, filling in the slightest details of the mold. As the liquid cool down, it shrinks a little, separating easily from the mold. The strength and ductility of Bronze Statues are great advantages compared with various ceramic or stone objects such as marble sculptures. There are different techniques of casting bronze sculpture, they are Bronze Sculptures (cold cast) and Bronze Sculptures (lost wax). These techniques needs an original basic mold made of stone, metal, wax, clay or plaster, and the casting is either supposed to be carried out of sand casting or lost wax. They can be made in different shapes and sizes according to clients’ requirements.
