What are your statuary items made of? (back to top)

Frank Lloyd Wright (FLLW) Exterior Decor, FLLW Vases & Urns, and European Vases are made using a method called Dry Casting.  This method has been around for centuries and has proven itself to be a durable, attractive and high quality alternative to other other materials (such as terra-cotta, plastic, clay, fiberglass, or concrete).  Our latest dry cast mix design included acrylic additives, stainless steel cable and recycled tiny chopped glass fibers for increased strength and durability.  The nature of our stone has a number of advantages: it has the appearance of carved stone at a fraction of the cost and it ages much like natural stone, developing a rich patina quite rapidly.  The material's ability to be cast into virtually any shape allows our craftsmen unlimited design possibilities and exquisite details.  Our most recent mix design and curing methods have given our stone greatly increased strength, weather tolerance, and resistance to abrasion.

FLLW Interior Decor products are made of a cement/gypsum mix.  These ARE NOT intended for outdoor use.

Unique Yard Items are made of a mix of dry case cement.  These are considered "frost resistant" and can be used in any climate.  From conception to completion, we treat our products as pieces of art.  Proper care will only extend the amount of enjoyment you receive from owning a piece of architectural beauty.  If you ever have a question please do not hesitate to contact us.
