A truly stunning pair of large bronze crane statues.
The attention to detail is fantastic and really brings them to life.
The photos do not do them full justice.
These incredible statues would look absolutely spectacular in a garden.
These high quality bronze statues were hot cast using the 'lost wax' (cire perdue) process.

Sometimes called by the French name of 'cire perdue' or the Latin, 'cera perduta' is the process by which a bronze or brass is cast from an artist's sculpture.
In industrial uses, the modern process is called investment casting. An ancient practice, the process today varies from foundry to foundry, but the steps which are usually used in casting small bronze sculptures in a modern bronze foundry are generally quite standardised.
