Artistry Rooted in Tradition
Benin bronze objects were historically used in West Africa as a form of currency and status symbol. Their value lies in both the metal used and the intricate ornamentation created on each sculpture. Crafted using the traditional lost-wax casting method, each sculpture is unique. This meticulous process involves creating a wax model, encasing it in clay, heating to set the clay and melt the wax, and then pouring molten metal into the mold. Once cooled, the clay is removed, revealing a one-of-a-kind bronze masterpiece.
