At a glance

• Material: Bronze, marble base
• Colour: bronze / black
• Dimensions (W x D x H): 6,9 x 10,2 x 11,7 cm
• Weight: 0,84 kg
• Finish: Lost-wax cast, hand-chased and patinated

Craftsmanship

The bronze is cast by the lost-wax method and then hand-chased so that feathers, skin and the patterned sound box of the lyre stand apart. The brown patina shows subtle gradations. Beneath the bronze plate lies a rectangular block of black marble.

Care

A soft, dry cloth is enough, for the marble too. Polish, water and cleaners would only harm the patina.
