Small Tawny Owl

Limited Edition of 200

Although Tawny Owls are quite widespread, we rarely see them in daylight, which is a great shame because they are so attractive. Keith Sherwin has captured this handsome Owl resting on an old farmyard wheel, parts of which have fallen away over time. The fine details of the bird's feathers and features, combined with the wooden spokes of the wheel, illustrate the skill and accuracy of Keith's sculpting style.

The Tawny Owl is made in solid foundry bronze using the ancient method of lost wax casting. The design is finished by the art of patination, where various acids are applied to the surface of the bronze, and heat is applied to create a deep, rich brown patina. The bronze is then sealed with a special wax, which further enhances the colour and protects the bronze for years to come.

Your Tawny Owl is beautifully presented in a wooden presentation box containing a signed certificate of authenticity. The bronze is engraved with the sculptor's signature and limited edition number, matching the certificate enclosed.
