FAQ:
What are spelter figures?
Spelter figures are decorative sculptures cast from a zinc alloy designed to resemble bronze. They were widely produced in Victorian and Edwardian Europe as an affordable alternative to solid bronze.
How can you tell if something is spelter?
Spelter is lighter than bronze and shows grey metal beneath any chips or wear. Unlike bronze, it is not magnetic and tends to develop a powdery surface patina over time.
