All of our statues are dogs, except one - this one! Originals By Springer collaborator, artist Valerie Keller, shows her immense talent and versatility with this life-sized sculpture of the Great Blue Heron.

The full height of the bronze statue itself is about 33-1/2" tall. It measures about 23" from front to back (from the tip of the bill to the back of the body); the body itself is about 7" wide; the outside width of the foot span is about 14-1/2". The statue in the picture is bolted onto a old marble base - the feet have bolts in the bottom that can be set into concrete or an outdoor stepping stone for a permanent display. In this photo, the base is 2" tall and 12" x 12" square.
Shown here with a bluish colored patina, the statue can also be ordered with a traditional bronze finish. |

Please note that all our bronze and pewter sculptures are cast in the U.S.A. Our Pewter items are lead-free pewter and our Bronze is true bronze, cast in the traditional hot-cast (lost-wax) method - not cold-cast "bronze," which is really a resin mixture.
