David Brooker Fine ArtMay 13, 2021It means that the sculpture is made from bronze and not a resin- Are bronze sculptures cast?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, bronze sculptures are indeed cast.

- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Many artists are famous for bronze sculptures.

On 1stDibs, shop a variety of bronze sculptures from some of the world's top galleries.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024Yes, bronze sculptures may be worth something. The artist, age, size, subject matter and condition of sculptures all play a role in determining their value. Bronze pieces by well-known artists like Alberto Giacometti and Constantin Brâncuși have sold for millions in the past. If a sculpture doesn't have much value based on its artistic merit, historical importance or other characteristics, the bronze metal itself may have value as scrap metal. For a valuation of a particular piece, use the services of an experienced art dealer or certified appraiser. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of bronze sculptures.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023The South Indian dynasty that was the most famous for bronze sculptures was the Chola dynasty, which lasted from the 300s BCE to 1279 CE.

- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022To tell if a bronze sculpture is real, start by scratching the dark coating on the metal called the patina. If the mark appears reddish-gold to yellow in color, you likely have an authentic bronze piece. Black or gray indicates a replica. When you strike a bronze statue, it should produce a ringing sound. A thud or knocking sound likely means the piece is another type of metal. Find a collection of expertly vetted bronze sculptures on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Bronze will begin to patina as it ages, and is a great way to check the age of a bronze piece. Bronze generally uses copper as an alloy, which captures an underlying and beautiful pink color. You can also have a professional determine the age of your bronze sculpture. Shop a collection of antique bronze sculptures from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
