We have 107 Nano Lopez pieces live on the site right now, priced from $2,400 up to $233,800, median around $10,100. That's an unusually wide span for one sculptor, and it holds together because the surface language stays consistent from the smallest piece to the largest.

Bronze, turquoise, and a surface that keeps talking

Every piece starts as cast bronze, then gets patina work in warm golds set against turquoise, and then the decoration that makes a Nano Lopez piece recognizable from across a room: honeycomb patterning, small inscribed letters and numbers, gears, buttons, a butterfly worked into a shoulder or a base. "Leonardo" is a lion carrying a rabbit and a guitar, gears and red leather straps across his frame, a base carved to read as prairie terrain underfoot. "Edison" is a cat with numbers and gears pressed into the surface and a small soccer ball resting against his tail. None of that is applied after casting — it's part of the mold, part of the piece from the start.

The catalog splits across recognizable groups — 59 pieces tagged as land animals, 26 large-format works, 21 small, 18 figurative, 12 built around species considered endangered in the wild, and smaller runs of dragons, fairies, and sea creatures. "Olivia Medium" is a reclining giraffe with turquoise-tipped ossicones and a small bird perched on her spotted back; "Sherlock Small" is a weathered terrier cast in an edition of 1,600; "Henry, Stella, & the Twins" stacks a family of four bronze fish in a vertical spiral rising out of a sculpted water-splash base. A handful of the largest works also come in their own size options — 5-foot and 8-foot versions of the same design — for anyone filling real floor space instead of a tabletop.

Edition sizes are recorded on 83 of the 107 pieces we carry. The tightest is a true edition of one — "Edison Medium." The widest recorded run is 2,800, on a piece called "Sarah." A number of pieces in between also come as an Artist Proof or Foundry Copy variant — the foundry's own retained casts, outside the numbered edition, traditionally fewer in number than any single run and priced above a standard numbered piece for that reason.

What's actually left

Two pieces are down to their last copy: "Eighteen," in the signed and numbered edition, and "Arthur Small." The artist-proof casts of "Eighteen" and "Sally" have sold through completely, too — a reminder that an AP run is usually smaller than the numbered edition it sits alongside, and empties first. That still leaves 107 pieces to choose from, running from small land animals sized for a desk to life-size pieces meant to anchor a room on their own.

Sizing a piece for a specific room or entryway is most of what people ask me about before they buy — call us and we'll talk scale through before the piece ships, not after it arrives too big for the spot you had in mind.
