Virgin Mary Bronze Statue with Folded Hands 110 cm for OUTDOORS.
Excellent craftsmenship made by an Italian company specialized in bronze working and active in the funeral articles industry.The sculptural technique used is the one with lost wax casting that has its origins in very ancient times and consists in creating a wax model, with a terracotta core, and using it to make a clay mold. By drilling two holes on the mold, one at the top and one at the bottom, the wax is heated, heating it and pouring, in a second moment, the molten bronze in its place. From the mold obtained is obtained a copy faithful to the original wax, which once cooled is cleaned from the clay and in the final step finished and polished.With this procedure, only unique pieces are produced, since the loss of the wax model and the clay coating is irremediable.The Virgin 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, which with the advancement of time gives these pieces a special look.
