Glass/Bronze sculptures are among the most sought after forms of collectable art. Desired for its beauty and durability, bronze sculpture has existed for over 3000 years. The ancient Greeks and the Chinese both worked with bronze and we have many examples of their works on display in our museums to this day. 20th century artists such as Umberto Boccioni followed in the footsteps of Donatello of the 14th century.

Glass/Bronze sculptures in the past were typically created using a method called “Lost Wax.”

1.      The artist creates a Glass/Bronze sculptures in wax by first adding and subtracting wax from an initial block of wax using a pot of heated wax and knives.

2.       Once the Glass/Bronze sculptures is completed, the mold making process begins. Vents are added to the sculpture, all of which angle down towards the bottom of the sculpture. The vents are used to provide an escape for the hot gases that are used in a later stage as well as provide the poured bronze an ability to fill in hard to access areas of the sculpture. The sculpture is then flipped upside down and encased in a block of fire resistant plaster

3.      Using a heated kiln, the wax is burned out leaving a negative cavity

4.      When the bronze is poured into the newly formed cavity of the Glass/Bronze sculpturesthe hot gasses escape through the vents.

5.      Once the bronze has cooled the vents and plaster are removed and the bronze is cleaned.

6.      The next stage in the creation process is the Patina. Using a mixture of chemicals applied to the sculpture with a torch and a brush, the surface can take on a variety of colors. Ferric Nitrate produces reds and browns; Cupric Nitrate produces greens and blues and Suppurated Potash produces black.

7.      In the final stage, a thin coat of wax is added to preserve the patina.

8.      When selecting a Glass/Bronze sculptures for your home or office there are a number of variables to consider. Although it is costly, sculpture (like other forms of art) retains its value and when purchased, with the right insight, can be viewed as an investment.
