Gorilla Statue by Metropolitan Galleries was cast by the traditional, lost-wax bronze casting method. This labor-intensive and time-consuming method of casting bronze statues ensures pristine quality and vivid detail. Metropolitan Galleries, Inc. offers a large selection of bronze statues and bronze fountains perfect for indoor and outdoor use. This sculpture features intricate, hand-forged details with a beautiful fire-applied patina. All bronze statuary will develop a natural patina when left in nature's elements. The aged patina on bronzes is often desired but can be prevented by care and cleaning of the bronze statue by applying beeswax or other polish to prevent a patina from forming.
