An ode to quiet beginnings, Il Primo by Gardeco captures the first sculptural gesture of Belgian artist Guido Deleu. Modest in form yet rich in resonance, this piece distils the moment an artistic journey ignites, creating a contemplative anchor for curated interiors and collector’s spaces.

Hand-cast in bronze using the lost-wax method, the sculpture carries the tactile honesty of Deleu’s early exploration, each surface bearing the marks of nascent intention. Rooted in the origins of Gardeco’s longstanding collaboration with the artist, this piece reflects the brand’s devotion to handcrafted collectible art that honours evolution, narrative, and enduring craftsmanship.

MATERIALS & DETAILS

Gardeco’s bronze sculptures are handmade by experienced craftsmen. Any size, weight, surface and colour variations are a proof of the artisanal production process. These variations add value and are therefore not to be considered defects. The patina colour may change over the years as a result of natural oxidation, contributing to the uniqueness of each piece.

Meet the Designer

Guido Deleu

Guido Deleu (1932) is a Belgian sculptor and civil engineer who worked for the company Philips for most of his life. Upon retirement, he decided to dedicate his life to art and sculpting. His artistic journey began at the Academy of Arts in Roeselare followed by several workshops in Carrara, Italy, focusing on carving techniques in marble. Deleu’s creations in ceramic and bronze have a contemporary, sophisticated and balanced out quality to them, making them the perfect complement to any interior. His most iconic creation is The Visitor, a kind and friendly figure whom anyone would welcome with open arms.
