Firebird Bronze was opened by Rip Caswell in 2012. Rip is one of the nation’s most recognized sculptors of wildlife and figurative works in bronze. As an artist and owner of Firebird Bronze Foundry and Caswell Gallery, Rip has a unique understanding of the relationships between the artist, foundry, and the collector. He provides accountability on all levels and at all stages of the process to guarantee a good experience for the collector and the artist.

In the transition from clay to bronze, Rip’s guidance ensures the integrity of the project. Standards of quality are maintained; budgets and deadlines are met.

With a strong emphasis on customer service, our core values are straightforward: hire quality talent, provide quality service at sustainable prices, and invest back into the company to keep it healthy. Firebird Bronze is in many ways a co-op foundry, partnered for success. Ultimately, it’s artists serving artists.
