Product Overview
Among TYART’s nature bronzes, this piece stands out for the way a deep navy patina framed in gold plays over its forms: a deep navy crescent arc framed in gold, a golden branch drifting across its opening — the arc drawn for the moon. The modelling is calm and confident, built from broad planes that catch light along the silhouette. At 500 × 150 × 800 mm, it is sized for sideboards, consoles and reception counters.
Slim black plinths keep the ground quiet and the silhouette airborne; sight lines pass through the negative space, which is what keeps so solid a subject feeling light.
Because every surface is patinated by hand before sealing, the finish has depth: brighter where the forms rise, deeper in the hollows. Placed on sideboards, consoles and reception counters, the sculpture reads as a lived-in bronze object rather than a plated ornament, and it keeps its tone with nothing more than routine dusting.
Design Inspiration: Mountains in Positive and Negative
Chinese landscape painting is written, not drawn: a mountain ridge carries the same rhythm as a calligraphy stroke — thick and thin, pressure and release. The round and crescent silhouettes in this series borrow the moon, the full circle for 圆满 (completeness) and the arc for renewal, while the pine standing at the summit is the classic sign of endurance. On a console, each piece reads as a written landscape: a mountain in one breath.
Craftsmanship: Lost-Wax Casting and Hand Patina
Casting begins with the original master model. A wax copy is coated in ceramic, fired, and replaced with molten bronze in the lost-wax method our foundry has used for years. The hollow-cast bronze is then fettled and finished by hand — seams removed, detail sharpened, surface evened — before the patina is built up in successive washes and sealed to protect the tone. Small variations between pieces are the signature of hand finishing, not a defect.
Teal, navy and gold patinas are applied in separate passes with resist lines between colors, then sealed; the color boundary is checked against a template on every piece.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the negative space really open through the piece?
Yes — the carved rock texture opens through the form, so light and sight lines pass straight through. That balance of mass and void is the point of the design: a full mountain subject that never sits heavy on the console.
2. Do the teal and navy models differ only in color?
Mostly, yes — silhouette and inner scenery vary slightly by model. If you tell us which combination you like, we can send current photos of each.
3. Can I order this piece in a different color?
Yes. The finish shown is the standard patina of this model, but the same sculpture can be produced in other tones — warm brown, antique gold, verdigris green or a custom two-tone patina. Hand patina is our standard process, so an alternative finish does not significantly affect lead time.
4. Is each sculpture exactly the same?
The casting comes from the same mold, so the form is consistent. The patina, however, is applied by hand, which means slight variations in tone between individual pieces — a normal characteristic of genuine cast bronze.
5. How is the sculpture packed for shipping?
Each piece is wrapped in protective foam and packed in a reinforced export carton; larger pieces travel in a foam-lined wooden crate. Wooden crates are standard for project shipments.
