Virgin of the Annunciation Bronze Statue 45 cm for OUTDOORS

Our Lady of the Annunciation Bronze Statue 45 cm for OUTDOORS.
Precious sculpture made by an Italian foundry expert in bronze casting and specialized in funeral art.The technique used for this Virgin of the Annunciation in bronze is lost wax casting. The process consists in creating a wax model, with a clay core, which will be immersed in a mold containing foundry sand. Once the sand is solidified, everything is overheated, so as to make the wax melt and let it out of shape. Subsequently, we proceed to the casting of the bronze in the interstices left empty by the wax and the extraction of the piece that will be polished and finished in the last phase.With this procedure, only unique bronze statues are produced, since the loss of the wax model and of the clay coating is inevitable.The outdoor Mary statue can be exhibited both indoors and outdoors. The statue is colored with paints that allow it to resist even outside. Bronze, being a living material, over the years (if exposed to the outside) tends to become dark: this characteristic represents the beauty of bronze and gives it a special look with time.
