How do I clean a bronze statue?

Dust the surface gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove accumulated particles. Avoid using water, commercial metal polishes or abrasive cleaners, as these substances strip away the original brown patination.

Were all these figures made in France?

French foundries and sculptors produced a large portion of the nineteenth century bronzes found here. Other continental makers and international artists working within European traditions also contributed to these sculptural styles.

What is the difference between bronze and spelter?

Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin that yields a heavy, durable sculpture suitable for fine chasing. Spelter is a softer, lighter zinc-based metal that was cast into decorative figures and lamps as an affordable alternative.

How can I tell the age of a bronze figure?

Examine the mounting style, the depth of the brown patina and the signature method stamped into the metal. Nineteenth century pieces often bear founder marks or artist signatures that correspond to recorded active working dates.

Where should I display a figural lamp?

Place a bronze figural lamp on a sturdy side table, desk or console where the metalwork catches natural room light. Ensure the integrated base rests on a level surface that easily supports the combined weight of the metal and stone.
