Greek Female Object in Antique Bronze (142|12000599)

Object by Currey and Company from the Greek Female collection in Antique Bronze finish The Greek Female Torso Bronze is a metal sculpture with a beautiful patina. The plissé effect of the crinkled fabric that perfectly represents a robe of a very important philosopher or politician at the height of the Greek era gives this work of art a great sense of movement. Made using a lost-wax technique when boiling bronze is poured into a mold covering an original wax sculpture that melts away, the raw bronze is only halfway to its ultimate beauty. Once set, there is a very long process of refining the surface to lend it greater sheen and patina. {ADDITIONAL FINISH INFORMATION: Antique Bronze}
