Fernando Botero Cat Gato Bronze Metal Sculpture Statue Figure on Marble Base
Description
Total Dimensions: Height 7'' x Width 19'' Approximate Weight: 10 LBS Original Reproduction: ReproductionThis cat is a bronze figure, modeled after the so-called "Fat Cat" by Fernando Botero. The Colombian artist is famous for its over-sized human and animal figures. In addition to cats, he has represented horses and birds in a grotesque opulence, which can be seen for example in Berlin and Singapore in public places. The sculpture on the left is signed at the same place like the original. The product is poured by hand and was cast in bronze using the lost wax method, which guarantees a high degree of dimensional accuracy and surface quality. The production is subject to our strict quality guidelines.

FAQ's
What material are your sculptures made out of?
All of our sculptures are made from100% hot cast bronze, and handmade in the ancient lost wax casting method. We never sell cheap cold cast sculptures or resins!
What is the difference between hot cast and cold cast bronzes?
Hot cast bronze is created by pouring a molten metal mixture into a mold. Before the metal can be poured, our artists must first create the mold on a medium such as clay, rubber, or wood. Each mold allows for a limited number of pours, and therefore a limited amount of sculptures can be created in any given round of production before the mold is destroyed and the artist must create a new mold.
Cold cast is actually made from resins and plastics which are painted over. They are cheaper, lighter, and less durable.
Generally speaking, hot cast bronzes are very time consuming and limited in their production, whereas cold cast resins can be mass produced and are inexpensive to create.
