Product Overview
Cast by the traditional lost-wax method and finished entirely by hand, this bronze abstract sculpture presents a twisted column of water in silvered bronze with blue undertones, crested with a curl of gold. a silvered patina with blue undertones and a polished gold crest gives the surface its depth, and the simplified planes keep the design readable in modern interiors. At 335 × 302 × 700 mm, it is sized for sideboards, consoles and reception counters.
Each model is a continuous vertical that traces the path of water — the twist of the current, the knot where two streams meet, the splash where the crest lets go. Finishes vary by model: silver-blue with a polished gold crest, white-green, white-blue-gold; all pale, all built to catch lamplight.
The patina is built up in layers and sealed, which means tone varies slightly from piece to piece — the mark of genuine hand finishing rather than a sprayed imitation. On a sideboard, console or reception counter, it holds its own without competing with the furniture around it, and it needs no more care than an occasional soft-cloth dusting.
Design Inspiration: Water, Going Up
The East supplies the philosophy: 上善若水 — the highest good is like water, which benefits all things without straining and always finds the way through. Water rising is the auspicious inversion: effort rewarded, fortune climbing. These are the pieces clients choose for new offices, new ventures and any year that is meant to go up.
Craftsmanship: Lost-Wax Casting and Hand Patina
The piece is produced by the traditional lost-wax method. Wax is modelled from the master, invested in a ceramic shell and burnt out, and molten bronze is poured into the cavity, so the finished casting is a hollow bronze shell rather than a solid block — lighter to handle, easier to place, and true to the way fine bronzes have been made for centuries. After casting, the surface is chased and polished by hand, then patinated in layered tones and sealed.
Tall open curves are hollow-cast with wall thickness verified through every bend; the pale finishes are built in layers and sealed to keep their milk-white freshness.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Are the pale finishes plated?
No — they are hand-applied patinas over the bronze, built in pale layers and sealed. That is why the tones have depth rather than the flat shine of plating.
2. Do the three models work as a set?
Yes — they share height range and patina language, so a pair or trio reads as one rising composition. Tell us the mix and we will quote the set.
3. 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.
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.
