What is a patina?
Patina is a colored effect that is attained by heating the metal sculpture with a torch and then treating it with various chemicals to achieve the desired coloration.  This is not a paint, which would only cover the color of the metal.  Patina chemicals react with the metal and actually change the it's surface color.   See The Bronze Process for more information.
Can I place a bronze sculpture outdoors?
That is for you to decide.  Patinas can and do react to their environment.  A good example is copper, which turns green.  If this work is placed outdoors, you can expect some variation the patina as the piece ages.  Some of our pieces are powder coated, which helps to protect the patina against the elements.  See Care of Bronze for cleaning instructions.
