How Much is a Roman Bronze Statue?
Finding the Right Decorative Objects for You
Every time you move into a house or an apartment — or endeavor to refresh the home you’ve lived in for years — life for that space begins anew. The right home accent, be it the simple placement of a decorative bowl on a shelf or a ceramic vase for fresh flowers, can transform an area from drab to spectacular. But with so many materials and items to choose from, it’s easy to get lost in the process. The key to styling with antique and vintage decorative objects is to work toward making a happy home that best reflects your personal style.
Ceramics are a versatile addition to any home. If you’ve amassed an assortment of functional pottery over the years, think of your mugs and salad bowls as decorative objects, ideal for displaying in a glass cabinet. Vintage ceramic serveware can pop along white open shelving in your dining area, while large stoneware pitchers paired with woven baskets or quilts in an open cupboard can introduce a rustic farmhouse-style element to your den.
Translucent decorative boxes or bowls made of an acrylic plastic called Lucite — a game changer in furniture that’s easy to clean and lasts long — are modern accents that are neutral enough to dress up a coffee table or desktop without cluttering it. If you’re showcasing pieces from the past, a vintage jewelry box for displaying your treasures can spark conversation: Where is the jewelry box from? Is there a story behind it?
Abstract sculptures or an antique vessel for your home library can draw attention to your book collection and add narrative charm to the most appropriate of corners. There’s more than one way to style your bookcases, and decorative objects add a provocative dynamic. “I love magnifying glasses,” says Alex Assouline, global vice president of luxury publisher Assouline, of adding one’s cherished objects to a home library. “They are both useful and decorative. Objects really elevate libraries and can also make them more personal.”
To help with personalizing your space and truly making it your own, find an extraordinary collection of decorative objects on 1stDibs.
- Are bronze statues valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023Whether bronze statues are valuable depends on the piece. Statues may be worth something due to their age, maker and theme or subject matter. The condition of statues, how rare works similar to it are and the current demand for pieces like it will also impact the value. You may wish to enlist the help of a certified appraiser who can evaluate the specific statue and give you an estimate of how much you could expect to receive if you sold a particular statue. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of bronze statues.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Depending on the time frame and place they were created, bronze statues can symbolize many aspects of society and culture.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022There are so few surviving bronze sculptures because many of the works of art were melted down to create weapons. In addition, some others became lost over the centuries. You can find a variety of antique bronze statues on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To verify if a bronze statue is real, first check the metal by gently scratching the patina. If it is a reddish-brown color, or a color in the yellow to onyx range, it is likely real. Anything too black or matted could indicate a fake.

- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024To tell how old a bronze statue is, first check the base or back for markings. Some pieces may be stamped with the year of production. Others may display a brand or artisan's name. You can research the maker by consulting trusted online resources to learn when they produced statues like yours. Alternatively, you can seek the opinion of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. Explore a wide range of bronze statues on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024Yes, some bronze statues are worth something. Many well-known sculptors have worked with the metal. Among them are Constantin Brancusi, Auguste Rodin, Alberto Giacometti, Thomas Schütte and Kiki Smith. Bronze pieces by these and other famous artists may be worth hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. Sculptures by lesser-known artists and those mass-produced for display in homes and gardens will typically be worth less. Valuations depend on the artist, age, style, type, condition and other factors. To learn how much a particular piece may be worth, consult a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of bronze sculptures.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024To tell if a statue is real bronze, try striking it with the handle of a butter knife. Bronze will typically produce a sustained ringing sound. Other metals will usually produce a duller, more muffled or shorter-lived sound. Researching the artist can also be beneficial. By learning what types of materials they worked with, you may be able to determine whether your piece is likely to be bronze. Another option is to have a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer inspect your statue for you. On 1stDibs, explore a range of bronze statues.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024To tell the age of a bronze statue, search the back or bottom for the maker's markings or an artist’s signature. Some makers have stamped the year or date of production right onto the metal, making it easy for you to calculate the age of a statue. Research the maker using trusted online resources if your piece doesn't have a date stamp. By exploring maker catalogues, you may be able to determine when they produced statues similar to yours. For an artist’s signature, you can use a reverse image search or compare it to images of work by the artist published by trusted online resources. Alternatively, you can use the services of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer to date your statue. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of bronze statues.
