Caring for Your Artwork
We have combined a high density stone with a catalyst to create this statue. The result is a durable statue that stands up to the ravages of time. Centuries-old casting techniques still apply. Artisans apply the patina — a labor-intensive process that requires several layers and specialized shading — all by hand.
