GeoK9Matte-Black Dog Sculpture
"Angular planes and a deep-black powder-coat finish give GeoK9 the stance of a guard dog and the refinement of a gallery piece. Cut from precision-laser steel and TIG-stitched for invisible seams, each facet catches light like a faceted gem while the UV-stable coating shrugs off West-Coast rain.
Sentinel-SSStainless Dog Sculpture
"Searches for "stainless cable dog sculpture Vancouver" lead straight to Sentinel-SS. Crafted entirely from marine-grade 316 stainless and wet-brushed to a satin sheen, it requires zero paint and resists even coastal salt spray.
AuricStallion Gold Horse Sculpture
"When architects Google "gold horse sculpture Canada," they find Auric Stallion. The rearing form is folded from aerospace-grade aluminum, hard-anodised in champagne gold, and sealed for UV stability.
CrimsonMonarch Red Lion Sculpture
"For the keywords "red lion statue" and "contemporary metal lion," Crimson Monarch tops the results. Laser-cut steel facets are epoxy-primed and coated in high-gloss automotive red, then oven-baked for a glass-smooth surface.
