Giant Sculptures' 280cm Monumental Contemporary Leaping Dolphins Bronze Sculpture with verdigris and teal patina, two dolphins crossed mid-leap on a wave base.
Monumental Contemporary Leaping Dolphins Bronze Sculpture - 280cm $145,85500
Description

The Monumental Contemporary Leaping Dolphins Bronze Sculpture stands 280cm tall, presenting two dolphins in a dynamic crossed leap above an integrated wave-form base. The larger dolphin arcs high and outward while the smaller angles diagonally beneath it, their bodies intersecting in a composition that reads as fluid motion suspended in cast metal.

Cast Bronze, Hand-Finished

This large bronze dolphin sculpture is produced using the traditional lost-wax casting method, which preserves the fine surface detail of each dolphin's rostrum, dorsal fin, and flukes. The body surfaces carry a heavy verdigris patina, mottled across warm brown tones to replicate the depth of naturally aged bronze. Polished reflective accents on the snouts, leading fins, and dorsal ridges contrast sharply against the matte-textured body, creating a finish that shifts with changing light. The wave-form base is finished in a deep teal-green patina, anchoring the composition visually and structurally. A small gold-toned collar detail marks the intersection point where the two bodies cross, adding a refined focal element to the centre of the piece.

At 280cm and 2,300kg, this monumental bronze sculpture is designed for permanent outdoor installation in plazas, coastal estates, waterfront developments, hotel forecourts, and large private gardens. The verdigris and teal palette suits stone paving, slate, dark aggregate, or open grass settings. Its sculptural wave base requires a level, load-bearing surface; we advise consulting a structural engineer prior to installation for any timber or suspended deck placement.

Handmade to Order, Fully Customisable

We can adjust patina colouration, modify the finish balance between polished and verdigris areas, or produce the sculpture to an alternative scale for site-specific requirements. Custom base configurations and mounting solutions are also available. This composition is inspired by the work of classical marine sculptors, and our team can work with you to adapt the arrangement or commission entirely new configurations. Contact us before ordering to discuss your site, specification, and timeline.

Delivery to Your Address

For larger sculptures shipped by sea freight, the carrier will contact you in advance to arrange a delivery window. Please ensure someone is available to accept the delivery and that the property has suitable access for the size of the piece.

Once the sculpture arrives, you are responsible for positioning it in its final display location. For larger or heavier pieces, we recommend arranging two people (family, friends, or a local moving service) to help with placement.

Lifetime Guarantee

Every sculpture carries a lifetime guarantee against finish defects under normal display conditions, subject to our Terms & Conditions.

This covers manufacturing defects, premature finish degradation, and structural failures under normal display. It does not cover damage caused by accidents, misuse, inappropriate environments (for example, an indoor-only sculpture placed outdoors), or modifications made after delivery.
