Cast Copper Sculpture
The Peacock
The peacock is cast in brass and designed as a screen piece, with detailed feather forms and a vivid surface finish. It is built to a buyer's drawing and can be installed as a standalone feature or integrated into a larger architectural or landscape composition. The casting process preserves fine detail and allows for consistent replication of complex shapes.

Key Benefits
- Brass casting captures fine feather details and surface texture without the need for additional machining
- The piece is built to the buyer's drawing, so size and form match the intended installation site
- Copper and brass materials develop a natural patina over time, which some projects intentionally use for aged or antique appearance
- Suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation with proper surface treatment
- Replicable across multiple units with consistent detail and finish
Application Scenarios
- Hotel lobbies and reception areas where a large decorative screen adds visual interest without blocking sightlines
- Residential entrance halls and stairwells where a sculptural element defines space
- Museum or exhibition hall entrances with a thematic or cultural reference to birds or ancient art
- Public plaza features where a large brass screen acts as a backdrop or privacy divider
- Commercial building foyers where a custom metal screen serves as a brand or identity marker
Who It Is For
- Interior designers specifying custom metal screens for high-end residential or hospitality projects
- Property developers sourcing unique architectural features for show units or lobbies
- Art consultants commissioning custom pieces for public or private installations
- Municipal or cultural project planners integrating decorative metalwork into public spaces
- Furniture and decor importers seeking distinctive, hand-cast metal objects for resale
Problems It Solves
- Standard catalogue screens often have fixed sizes and forms that do not fit a specific architectural layout
- Replicating intricate feather forms in metal is difficult with welding or forging alone, but casting preserves detail
- Painted or coated metal screens degrade outdoors or in high-traffic areas, while solid brass maintains integrity
- Designers need a piece that matches a specific drawing but cannot find a manufacturer that builds to drawing
- Existing screens are either too small, too generic, or lack the depth of detail found in hand-cast work

Use Guide

Manufacturing Process
How This Piece Is Made

Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
Compared with Welded steel screenWelded steel requires more fabrication and cannot capture fine feather detail as well as casting
Compared with Painted metal screenPainted finishes wear and chip over time, while baked lacquer or electroplating on cast brass lasts longer
Compared with Resin imitationResin cannot achieve the weight, depth, or surface quality of a solid brass cast
Compared with 304 stainless steel screenStainless steel is lighter and more reflective, but lacks the warm, antique appearance of brass
