Bruce Fox, Inc. was founded in 1938 by a young metalsmith and sculptor, Bruce Fox. The company started as a producer of cast aluminum and sculpted copper decorative pieces and giftware in post-Depression America. Most of the designs of the company's early era featured themes from nature—leaves and animals were popular subject matter, many of which were tropically inspired in nature. Bruce Fox was creating the molds and patterns himself for production in his small metalworking shop, which included an aluminum and bronze foundry, as well as a number of casting and molding capabilities.
