In 1972 the company moved to Holbrook. In 2000, they moved their manufacturing to Mexico.Austin started in 1952 manufacturing reproductions of classical Egyptian, Greek and Roman sculptures and expanded into African, Asian and contemporary pieces soon thereafter.The company remains best known for its hand-cast Durastone and bronze reproductions and hand-painted marble pieces and eventually began producing more contemporary subjects, such as modern sports, movies and popular comic strip characters.The company reproduced thousands of pieces over the years, and retired pieces have high collectible values. The company retired its entire line in 2009, giving rise to an active market of dealers and collectors seeking to complete collections before the items become unavailable."The site in Brooklyn expanded several times before the firm moved its facility to Holbrook, N.Y., in 1971. Although we have expanded the business to include the world of decorative arts, Austin still remains a family owned and operated company with manufacturing facilities in Reynosa, Mexico and Corby, England as well."The casting procedure used by Austin Sculpture is: "The caster puts steel armatures, or supports, into the mold. He then mixes the DURASTONE -- a special formulation of crushed stone -- into a slurry which is then poured slowly into the mold. When filled, the caster then jostles the mold gently to let trapped air escape. The mold then sits undisturbed for over an hour before it can be demolded. The shell is removed, the rubber mold peeled off, leaving a sculpture reproduction with all the detail and texture of the original. It is then cleaned and placed in a heated chamber for up to 48 hours, which brings it to optimum hardness and readies it for its finish or patina."Austin uses "more than 70 different finishes and patinas in the Austin Sculpture Collection, numerous bronze and stone finishes as well as wood, terra-cotta and specialty multi-color finishes. Each patina is applied by hand by skilled artisans and must conform to the standards of the original. The sculpture is then waxed and buffed.
