Lion Post 1.jpg
Indiana Limestone, Cast Bronze
7'6" x 3'6" x 3'6" (overall)

These imposing posts (there are two, each on either side of a formal drive) were designed around the client's massive antique door knockers. Using photographs, we came up with our own version of the form and cast it in bronze. The blocks the lions are mounted on are solid limestone and weigh over 4,000 pounds each. I hope no one ever drives into one!
