Product Overview
The a pair of leopards belongs to TYART’s animal collection: pair of leopards walking together, hollow-cast in bronze by the traditional lost-wax method and hand-finished with a hand-applied patina. At 550 × 180 × 400 mm, it is sized for sideboards, consoles and reception counters.
The body is one long arc from nose to tail-tip. Musculature is suggested by broad, rising planes rather than deep carving, so the patina pools in the hollows and brightens on the ridges — light does the modelling. The base is kept low and quiet so the animal’s line stays the story.
The finish is sealed against fingerprints and daily handling. On a sideboard, console or reception counter, the piece works as a quiet anchor in the room — close enough to touch, solid enough to stay put, and simple to care for with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
Design Inspiration: The Big Cat as an Emblem of Power and Grace
From the lions on European coats of arms to the guardian tigers of Asian art, big cats have always meant the same things: power, focus and quiet confidence. This bronze takes the opposite approach to a literal wildlife study: the animal’s gesture is captured at the moment of commitment — weight forward, eyes ahead — and the body is resolved into long, flowing planes. The emphasis falls on rhythm and line rather than fur detail, which is what lets the piece hold its own in a contemporary lobby as well as a collector’s cabinet.
Craftsmanship: Lost-Wax Casting and Hand Patina
Every sculpture is hollow-cast in bronze by the traditional lost-wax method: a wax model is taken from the original master, encased in a ceramic shell, burnt out and replaced with molten bronze. The raw casting is cleaned, welded and refined entirely by hand before the patina is applied layer by layer and sealed. Because the patina is finished by hand, each piece varies slightly in tone and depth — a mark of genuine cast bronze rather than a sprayed imitation.
Special care is taken with the spine line and tail: after casting, the whole curve is checked against a template and trued by hand, so the silhouette stays flowing from every viewing angle.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the big cat modeled from a real animal?
The pose and proportions are drawn from how the animal actually moves — weight distribution, spine line and tail balance follow feline anatomy. The surface treatment, however, is deliberately simplified so the piece reads as sculpture rather than taxidermy.
2. Can the cat be posed differently, for example standing instead of running?
Each model is cast from its own master mold, so the pose shown is the pose supplied. If your project needs a different gesture, we can quote for a modified or commissioned version — send us your scene and requirements.
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. What is the MOQ?
We work with both single-piece orders and bulk project orders. Contact us with your quantity and destination port for an accurate quotation and lead time.
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.
