Two Reindeer

Product Overview

Model XLA4-17 is built around a single image: two reindeer standing together. The piece is hollow-cast by the traditional lost-wax method, then patinated and sealed by hand, so a hand-applied patina sits over crisp, hand-chased detail. At 390 × 185 × 425 mm, it is sized for sideboards, consoles and reception counters.

The antlers are the signature of the model: sweeping, tapered and open, they are cast thin enough to look drawn in air yet rigid enough for daily handling. The body stays compact beneath them, so the composition reads as upright and calm from the front and fluid from the side.

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: The Deer as an Emblem of Gentleness and Nobility

Deer bronzes suit today’s interiors for a simple reason — the animal reads as peace with dignity, from the stag of European heraldry to the companion of immortals in Chinese painting. That calm, auspicious character is why deer pieces are so often placed at entrances and reception spaces, and why gold reindeer versions carry an extra appeal through the holiday season. This model leans into elegance rather than realism: long legs, a lifted head, and antlers drawn in sweeping curves that frame the space around the piece.

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.

The coat is suggested, not carved: shallow tool marks over the shoulders and haunches catch the patina and give a soft texture, while the face and antlers stay smooth and precise.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does a deer sculpture symbolize?

Peace, gentleness and nobility — in European tradition the stag is a royal, heraldic animal, and Chinese tradition adds longevity and prosperity to the meaning. Deer pairs or families are often placed at entrances as a welcoming accent, and gold reindeer versions are especially popular in the holiday season.

2. Are the antlers strong enough for daily handling?

Yes. The antlers are hollow-cast bronze in one piece with the head, so they are rigid and far tougher than resin or ceramic equivalents. As with any thin bronze section, we recommend lifting the piece by the body rather than the antlers when moving it.

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.
