“I began working with Firebird three years ago on an abstract sculpture that is ten feet tall. From the 3-D printing to the polished completion of the final piece, each of the staff working on each of the various phases of development were kind, courteous, helpful and friendly. My committee and I were welcomed to see every stage in the process.
The staff was very open and professional (not to mention patient) with the development of our piece. Their various craftspeople were more than welders or workers. They are artists and artisans who seem to enjoy helping to give birth to my art as well. I couldn’t be more pleased with the service I have received or the relationships that have developed in working with Firebird Bronze.”
