FINE ART IN BRONZE

Limited Additions

Butler & Peach Fine Bronze Range

Richard Cooper & Company work with UK sculptors and designers to create stunning and unique foundry bronze sculptures. Products range from the flamboyant figurative work of Landanski, through to the detailed wildlife studies of Michael Simpson. All bronzes are produced using the lost wax method. Each bronze is decorated and finished either using traditional patinas or by hand painting with acrylics and enamels. Prices start at £25 retail.
Bronze has been valued from the earliest civilisations in Greece, Egypt and Rome to the modern world today. It has been used to make utensils, weapons, furniture, statues, and monuments. In fact virtually anything that needs strength and must wear indefinitely.
It is fascinating to realise that a foundry from the old world would employ similar techniques to todays. Naturally there have been improvements over the generations but the system remains intact and true to the heritage.
The same high skill level to manage the intense heat generated in the process is needed, yet at the same time a delicate hand has to create the rich patina associated with bronze. A product from the ancient world would look similar if crafted today.
The appreciation of decorative bronze sculpture is probably more relevant today than at any time in the past. The style of homes in the Victorian era for example was full of objet d'art but today we favour clean uncluttered lines. One fine bronze sculpture is all that is needed.
