Laran Bronze is a fine art foundry established in 1984, owned and operated by Larry Welker, his wife Diane Welker and brother Randy Welker. The company is located in Chester, Pennsylvania, in a large complex that was once a part of the shipbuilding industry. Over the years, Laran Bronze have perfected the art of bronze casting, from miniature to monumental.
Serious artists look first and foremost for a foundry with outstanding quality. At Laran Bronze, we’ve earned a reputation for helping artists achieve the results they envision for their works of art.
Laran Bronze has been selected for several high profile projects like the World War II Memorial in Washington, DC. “The War Memorial commission is the most important of my career,” stated Ray Kaskey, sculptor for the Memorial, “I wouldn't want to entrust the casting to anyone I didn’t have the utmost confidence in.”
As a fine art casting foundry, we combine age-old skills with the latest materials and technology, including resin bonded sand casting, and digital 3D scanning and enlarging. Our large facilities allow for work at practically any scale. Please contact us to discuss how we might work with you and your project. We look forward to hearing from you.
