Bronze Husky Sculpture

Want to own your very own piece of UConn history? Now you can with this incredible 100% hot cast bronze husky sculpture. This piece will look absolutely stunning in your home or office.

This extremely limited edition UConn husky statue has a rich history with the university's athletic program. Geno Auriemma and Kevin Ollie, two legendary UConn coaches, own the other two aluminum editions. In fact, Kevin Ollie's handmade cast aluminum sculpture has even been on display at the Werth Family UConn Basketball Champions Center on the Storrs campus to commemorate the team's historic championship run in 2014.

The husky is an enthralling animal with a striking, wolf-like visage, sparkling blue eyes, and fascinating history. The thick-furred dogs are most well known for their outstanding sled-pulling abilities. They were initially bred to support the Chukchi people of Siberia in their hunting. The characteristics that made them adept hunters have not changed, and they have an indomitable spirit while remaining fiercely devoted to their companions. Their incredible endurance—some are known to race thousands of miles—and strong will are precisely why they're the perfect symbol for UConn.

In my own limited edition husky dog statue, I try to encapsulate the same magnificent facial structure, upright triangular ears, and confident gaze. The bronze hot casting method is capable of capturing extremely fine details that appear to bring the sculpture to life.

The bronze husky sculpture was cast at the eminent Polich Tallix Foundry in New York. The foundry is known for producing some of the most famous works of art that are currently displayed in museums, galleries, parks, and many other public areas.

When you display the statue, you want everyone to be able to take in all of the features of the UConn husky mascot with a 360-degree perspective. The best spots are on top of tables or pedestals resting at eye level. Generally, your eye line helps dictate what part of the space the sculpture fits best without interrupting traffic flow or the rest of the room’s functionality.

This sculpture comes mounted on a base and weighs about 30 pounds. Dimensions are 14" high x 14" deep x 14" wide (inches).
