Bronze Figures & Statues

The human figure in bronze is the oldest continuous tradition in Western sculpture, and it survives because bronze does two things marble cannot. It holds a figure in motion without a support strut, and it takes a portrait likeness from a mould without the risk that a single mistake destroys the block.

Every piece here is cast, chased and patinated by hand. The range covers classical gods, emperors and philosophers, dancers, musicians and working figures, portrait busts, and contemporary treatments alongside the traditional ones. Some pieces set the figure on a stone or granite base for contrast.

This is where most of our portrait and memorial commissions are made, because bronze suits both: it takes fine detail in a face and it stands outdoors permanently, which is what a memorial usually needs.

Most of the collection is at or near life size, which is where a figure stops reading as an object and starts reading as a presence. For the same subjects in stone see marble sculptures and statues, and for the full material spread figurative sculptures.

Every piece is cast to order by our artists, designed in Birmingham and made in our worldwide studios. Standard production takes around three to four weeks, and we offer free worldwide shipping. Get in touch about portrait and memorial commissions.
