The Alpine Ibex is a species of wild mountain goat that lives in the European Alps. The males are distinguished by their spectacular curved horns. This wonderfully sculptural subject is ideally suited to the bronze medium, which permits very fine, slender details to be rendered with the strength that only bronze can provide. Alpine Ibex is released in a limited edition of just 12 pieces. It would make a stunning centrepiece in any home. Available now.
Bronze Animal Sculpture
Limited edition of 12
Traditional bronze casting is a highly skilled and time consuming process. First Nick meticulously sculpts the animal in clay. A wax model is produced from the original sculpture and used to create a mould. A new wax model is required for each sculpture in the edition, as the wax is burned away in the casting process. Nick checks and refines each wax model personally. Large sculptures must be cast in sections and welded together. Once cast, the piece must be finished and patinated. Whilst expensive, bronze casting produces animal sculptures of wonderful depth and detail. These are true investment pieces to treasure and pass down through the generations.
