Pair Art Deco Panther
During the Art Deco era, particularly in the 1920s and 1930s, many sculptures, including panther sculptures, were made from various materials, including bronze. The Art Deco style was characterized by its clean lines, geometric shapes, and often luxurious materials. Here is some information about the bronze production of Art Deco panther sculptures in France:
Design and Modeling
Artists and sculptors designed Art Deco-style panther sculptures with flowing lines and stylized forms. The models were often made from clay, wax, or another moldable material.
Molding
Negative molds of the panther were created from these models, often made from silicone or plaster, to allow for an accurate reproduction of the original model.
Lost Wax Casting (Cire Perdue)
This is a traditional method for producing bronze sculptures. The wax model is embedded in a mold, then the mold is heated to melt the wax, and molten bronze is poured into the empty mold.
Bronze casting:
The molten bronze is poured into the empty mold, where it cools and hardens. This process creates a bronze sculpture with the details of the original wax model.
Panthers are our passion, like these two panthers on marble, so we have several others, including the large Art Deco signed panther.
