Vintage Bronze Heron Sculptural Pond Fountain 20th Century

About the Item

The fountain features a beautifully detailed pair of sculpted herons standing on a log. The water flows out of nozzles from the beaks and one from the top of the tree trunk. This fountain is cast from solid bronze and was made by the traditional lost wax (cire perdue) method. A lot of intricate detailing has gone into the creation of this special display piece. Add an elegant element to your garden with this lovely fountain, which can be used as a stand-alone fountain or as a centrepiece to a pond. Condition: In excellent condition, please see photos for confirmation. Dimensions in cm: Height 202 cm x Width 120 cm x Depth 111 cm Dimensions in inches: Height 6 foot, 7 inches x Width 3 foot, 11 inches x Depth 3 foot, 8 inches Lost Wax Method 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 artists 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.
