Bronze Sculpture “Swallow in Flight” on Black Marble - Silver Plated - H. 47,5 cm
Item number 138412
A silver swallow that touches the stone with a single wingtip.
The bird climbs at an angle, its forked tail ending in two long points. Traditionally a messenger of good fortune and return, it makes a fine gift for a new home or an anniversary, and the silver reads most clearly on a desk or against a dark wall.

Craftsmanship
The swallow is cast in bronze by the lost-wax method and then coated with silver, which traces every flight feather. Its base of white-veined black marble steps down through bevelled edges to a separate plinth, a profile straight out of Art Deco.
Care
Wipe with a dry microfibre cloth and never use abrasives. If the silver dulls over the years, a silver cloth will gently revive it; keep it off the marble.
