These pieces are made from brass using the lost wax casting method The two brass colors are Verdigris("Verdi") and Bronze. The bronze color will turn into verdigris over a number of years. |
The Mermaid Fountain is an excellent illustration of the differences in the two colors. Her hair and fin are verdi and her body is bronze. |
It is important to understand that each piece is custom, and verdi color variations will vary. Here is a verdi image of the Wind Dancing Statue |

Here is another variation of the Verdi color. It looks silver, but it is just how the brass reacted when the piece was created. This is our Crane Pair Fountain |
In this example of the verdi color, the picture almost looks blue. It is our Five Dolphins Fountain . |
