Metal Casting

"Live Casting" and Traditional Model Metalwork

Butterfly Bronze produces beautiful artifacts in a range of metals including bronze, stainless steel, copper, aluminum and lead.

Using a unique technique of "Live Casting" trademark, William Hayes has developed a method to cast organic matter which does not require traditional mould making. It is therefore cost effective, bringing metal art to a wider audience.

We produce a range of live cast flowers primarily in bronze which are breathtakingly beautiful. And a space already exists in your home for them. Cast in bronze or aluminum, these sculptures are absolutely unique, each one coming from it's own flower literally dipped in metal. More than in nature, no two are ever the same. And of course, if cared for, being metal they last a lifetime.

Nearly any flower on earth can be beautified in this manner.But you have to know how.
