Pet Sculpture Commissions

Uniquely your own

Nick will work closely with you, drawing on your own notes, photographs and other material to capture the essence of the animal. You will be sent regular photo updates, giving you a unique input into the creative process. Many clients find this a profoundly moving and fulfilling experience, and the result is an animal sculpture that is uniquely yours. Pet commissions can be made in ceramic or bronze to immortalise the special animal in your life.

  • Working in bronze is a time consuming and labour intensive process. Nick will work with you to make the initial clay sculpture, which will typically take 4-5 weeks. The clay sculpture is used to create a wax mould which is then cast and patinated at the foundry. This usually takes a further 8-10 weeks. We will always do our best to accommodate deadlines, such as birthdays or anniversaries. But please allow as much time as possible.

  • Cost depends on time, size, materials and complexity. Guide prices for ceramic start from £3000 and £4500 for bronze. We will provide you with a quote before accepting your commission, so you know upfront what you’re paying.

  • We ship internationally and are very experience at packing and shipping all over the world. We use a mix of general and specialist art couriers. We use our own packing materials and, where necessary, custom made crates to keep your commission as safe as possible during transit. We will provide you with a quote for shipping in advance.

  • VAT with be payable at 20% when ordering in the UK. VAT is not charged if ordering from outside the UK. However, you will be responsible for any local taxes, duties and tariffs that may apply in your country. We will do our best to advise you at the time of ordering.
