Description

Bronze bench gilt with patinated palladium sheet by Cecile Ballureau.

The model was carved to scale, in wax and wood, on a metal frame, then adjustments were made on the dimensions of the belly and for the harmony of the openings on the frame. The bronze was cast with lost wax in eight elements and then covered with patinated palladium sheet to accentuate the contrast between the dark backgrounds and the grip of the light on the reliefs.

The pieces is signed and delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
