How We are Unique

As an American company we take pride in our ability bring customers beautiful statues that are of an extremely rare size and quality in this region of the globe. Each sculpture in our inventory is hand-selected to ensure that every piece is as extraordinary as the individual purchasing it, and as exceptional as the one who created it.

Trade Wind Statues is unique in that we work directly with many of the artisans and vendors within the communities where we purchase our statues in an effort to promote the principles of Fair Trade, while at the same time ensuring that our statues are of the highest quality available.
We take customer service very seriously and are always happy to assist our customers in purchasing the perfect statue that will represent something meaningful in their lives.
