About This Project

This large seated Buddha is a bronze statue made according to the image of Sakyamuni. It is located in the famous temple in Bangkok, Thailand - Vapknan Bashicharan. This large Buddha bronze statue is 65 meters (213 feet) high and weighs about 965 tons. The number of petals in the lotus throne is 60 (30 big petals and 30 small petals), and the number of hair is 365, which means meditating every day. In addition, under the lotus throne is a 6-meter-high concrete building. This Buddha statue is made of copper material combined with forging technology. The surface is painted with gold paint, and the inside is supported by a carbon steel structure. Every detail has been carefully studied, calculated, and analyzed. This bronze large Buddha statue was installed and finished by the end of 2019 and it became the largest sitting bronze Buddha in the world.

Packing and shipping of the huge bronze Buddha statue 

Before fabrication, we will make a suitable packing and shipping plan for the mirror stainless steel sculpture project. We have coordinated the professional artwork crates company that can pack the sculptures in export standard. Cooperating with the specialized shipping agent for the shipping service in ocean shipping, air cargo, and international express, to ensure the clients will receive the mirror stainless steel sculpture artworks without any damages and in a timely.

Installation Cases and Introduction. 

For large mirror stainless steel sculptures, and projects, it is commonly cut into many sections for shipping, and then reassembled at the site, Sino Sculpture has a professional overseas installation team. They can handle the site installation work and coordinate with local technicians. We Sino Sculpture also provide technicians to the site for installation instructions and support for the client’s installation. For easy-handling installation work, the instruction drawings will be provided and the client can install it or refer to it by themselves for cost-saving. Anyhow, we at Sino will give the best and easy-operated method for every client. Below is the last 5 years' typical project site installation over the world. 



F&Q

1. What are the main materials you used to make sculptures?
-Stainless steel in degrees of 304, 316, 316L.
-Silicon Bronze; Tin bronze; Copper.
-Corten steel
-Mild steel.
 
2. What is the main material used as the internal structure?
- 304-degree stainless steel;
-mild steel.
 
3. What are the main methods or crafts you used to make a sculpture?
- Hand forging (a new type of sculpture fabrication)
- Casting (Traditional way)
 
4. What is the progress of the above 2 crafts and any differences?
-Hand Forging: Modeling - Cutting metal panels - Hammered & shaped metal panels by hands - Welding & assembly - Grinding & finish -Installation.
-Casting - Modeling - Lost Wax/sand casting - Welding & assembly - Grinding & Polishing - Installation.
The main difference between the 2 crafts is that hand forging is a way that directly uses metal panels to shape the form of the model, which is similar to wearing a cloth outside of the model. It will not change the material’s physical characteristics, no need to heat and melt the metal material.  While traditional Casting has to heat coal, it may cause its chemical component to change and cause some pollution(air pollution, solid pollution, etc.).
 
5. What is the main finish you can do?
-Stainless steel sculpture - mirror polishing, hairline, spray paint, gold leaf, electroplate, titanizing, patina.
- Bronze/Copper sculpture - patina, spray paint, gold leaf, gilding.
 
6. How do you pack the sculptures and in which way you can deliver them?
-Small size sculpture, first is a very soft and fine pearl foam to wrap the sculpture safely, and second is bubble plastic air bubble film to wrap, and then put it into a plywood box which 6 insides were covered by 5mm thick pearl foam, and fixing the sculpture in the export standard box security in by extra soft material.
-Large sculptures, cut them into small sections based on the loading dimension of Containers, and then pack each section with a steel frame.
-Deliver way, sea freight, air freight. rail freight, express.
