Brass Fountains and Garden
Statuary
What are your brass fountains
and garden statuary made of?
All of our brass fountains and garden statuary are made
of solid brass.
How many finishes do you
have?
We offer some of our products in two patinas: Verdigris(green-gray) and bronze. Each piece is individual and actual color may vary.
Can I special
order a finish?
Because of the difficulty of working with solid brass
and the finishing materials, we do not offer custom
finishes.
Will they rust?
Brass will not rust. Some of the smooth surfaces may
loose some of the verdigris finish and turn a dark brown
color. Any exposed surface where moisture can accumulate will
turn more verdigris.
How long will they
last?
We like to think of these pieces as "heirlooms of
tomorrow" since brass will not decay or rust, you will enjoy
your fountain or garden sculpture for many, many
years.
Can I use them
indoors?
Yes! All of our pieces have been designed to enhance
the beauty of your house inside and
out.
How do they weather the
outdoors?
Brass will not rust. Moisture on brass causes a
chemical reaction that gives brass its verdigris patina. An
outdoor setting will only enhance the finish of your
piece.
What does saltwater do to
brass?
Nothing. Moisture of any kind will add to the beauty of
your piece.
How do I clean my Brass
fountain or sculpture ?
Wipe off the water spots
with a coarse cloth or by brushing the spots with a very soft
brass-bristled brush. A Lint brush works very well. After you
are done removing the water spots, you should apply a light
coat of paste wax (Minwax, a furniture wax, works very well).
Buff with a clean cloth.
