What are the materials for making Stone Garden Statues?

Do you know which metal materials the stone sculpture we usually see are made of? The common materials used to make Stone Garden Statues are aluminum, stainless steel and iron, each of which has its own characteristics.

The common materials used to make Stone Garden Statues are aluminum, stainless steel and iron. The following is a detailed introduction:
Aluminum is a metal material commonly used in stone carving. The advantages of aluminum are: it is lightweight, cheaper than copper, and has a lower melting point. It's not as easy to work with as bronze, and it's a bit tricky to solder, but once you get the hang of it, it's not difficult at all. The disadvantage of aluminum is that its appearance is not as rich as that of bronze, and it cannot form a colorful luster with the help of external forces. If it is exposed to the outdoors for a long time, it will also be oxidized.
Stainless steel is another metal material commonly used in stone sculpture, and it is currently the most widely used. The advantage of stainless steel is that it is absolutely durable (the nickel content is relatively high), no matter what the environment is, it will not undergo any corrosion and changes. At the same time, stainless steel is also very strong, so it is a bit difficult to make, but it welds well, and it has a good gloss.
Stainless steel has two major disadvantages: firstly, its high melting point requires an induction furnace, which is not available in every foundry; It is relatively indifferent, giving people the feeling of "industrial age".
There is also an increasingly widely used color plate public decorative Stone Carving material is metal iron. These plate crafts are processed by welding and riveting techniques, and then painted or anti-corrosion treated to form different decorative images. The famous work "Untitled" by French non-figurative stone sculpture artist Albert Ferro is an abstract steel world.
Of course, any metal that can be poured can be cast into a statue. The metals used were principally silver, gold, brass, mild steel, lead, and many others.
