Celebrating Memorial Day with Tributes and Bronze Statues


This memorial day weekend there will be barbecues, pool parties, and beach goers galore. But there will also be many people that will gather together for the true reason for the holiday, to remember our fallen heroes and memorialize their sacrifice. Here at bigbronze.com, we believe in giving back to those that served and died defending our freedom. Our bronze battlecross was purchased by many towns, organizations, and friends of the fallen that will use it to immortalize the men and women that made the ultimate sacrifice. We don't believe in making large profits when it comes to such a solemn occasion, that's why our pricing will always be the very lowest it possibly can be. We want to help those that want to create these memorials by making it as easy as possible for them to purchase our product.

Along with our always absolute low price on the war memorial we also give a wholesale discount to schools, organizations, and municipalities so that they can create a focal point the people in their area will take pride in. Our custom solutions are also done at the lowest possible price while still realizing the vision of those having them done.

Please take a moment this memorial day to honor those that died for our country, they didn't ask for greatness, greatness was thrust upon them. Visit a memorial in your area and pay your respects. One of those is in the town of Wantage, NJ, they sent us a link to their memorial in progress, please take a look at all that goes into creating these beautiful and sacrid places.

Phillies fans to honor Harry Kalas with memorial bronze statue


The late Harry Kalas is being honored by his devoted fans with a memorial bronze sculpture to be donated to the Philadelphia Phillies organization. A website has been created to raise the $80k plus it will take to make this happen. A local artist has been hired after taking it upon himself to create a model after seeing a petition online to have a statue created. While this is all very moving and sincere, these fans could have obtained the sculpture at a fraction of the price if they shopped around a bit. Here at bigbronze.com we can create custom works as well but for a lot less than the $80,000 the fans of philadelphia are paying. And our pieces are of no less quality than the ones made by a famous artist. The difference is you pay for a name when you commission a known artist. We don't charge for the privelage of our services, just the service itself. So, if you're in the market for a custom piece to honor someone or some thing, save yourself a substantial amount by giving us a call first and getting the most bang for your buck.

Custom Ronald Reagan for the USS Ronald Reagan and Library


A few years back we did a custom bronze sculpture for the USS Ronald Reagan of the president. The life-size bronze statue is situated in the welcome center as you come on board. The ship is docked in the harbor in San Diego. This piece was donated as a show of our patriotism and support of the Reagan memory. Another model was donated to the ranch the family had by Nancy herself. A third was placed in Reagan's boyhood hometown. And another is in the state house in Maryland. The final piece in the series was to be sold to a private collector, however it was never picked up. It is now available for sale at our ebay store at a significant discounted price. It would be a great addition to a library, museum exibit, or private collection. You can see it here.

Extreme Makeover Home Edition Season 5 Horse sculpture donation



A couple years ago we actually donated a piece to the Extreme Makeover Home Edition team for a build in Port Deposit, Maryland. We donated our standing foal statue pictured above. It sits in the center of the circle driveway leading up to the home. We've made several donations to all kinds of school, organizations, and museums, but this one was especially nice because it went to a family in need. You can see more pictures of the piece here: http://www.ctextremedream.com/
