Description

The Life-Size Contemporary Handstand Child Bronze Sculpture stands 130cm tall and captures a single child in a perfectly balanced handstand: legs thrust vertically upward, short dress riding up, lace-up ankle boots pointing skyward, and a smiling face visible in the inversion. It is a rare piece that communicates pure, unconstrained joy through bronze.

Cast Bronze, Hand-Finished

Cast using the traditional lost-wax method, this handcrafted bronze sculpture achieves the fine surface detail that defines gallery-grade work: the fall of the dress hem, the lace eyelets on the boots, the cropped hair pressed against the inverted head. The antique bronze patina combines warm brown tones across the skin and footwear with green-blue verdigris oxidation on the clothing areas, giving the piece the depth and character of a naturally aged finish. A low, flat rectangular bronze base keeps the presentation clean and grounded.

At 130cm, this sculpture commands attention as a freestanding centrepiece. Indoors, it suits double-height entrance halls, gallery-style living spaces, and contemporary stairwells where the vertical composition can read fully from a distance. Outdoors, it performs equally well on a stone terrace, in a formal courtyard, or set against clipped hedging. The warm bronze tones work naturally alongside pale limestone, dark slate, and whitewashed or raw-concrete walls.

Handmade to Order, Fully Customisable

Patina options include natural antique brown, dark espresso, verde green, or a polished warm bronze. The sculpture can also be scaled up or down to suit a specific setting.
