Bronze Group “Two Rugby Players” on Black Marble - golden-brown patina - H. 43,6 cm

Ball carrier and defender caught at the instant of the tackle, cast in solid bronze.

The runner charges forward while his opponent dives and clings to his hip, both in collared jerseys, hooped socks and laced boots of decades past. The group belongs in a study, a clubhouse or on a trophy table, and makes a powerful gift for anyone who loves the game.

At a glance

• Material: Solid bronze, black marble base
• Colour: Bronze / black
• Dimensions: 16 x 43,7 x 43,6 cm
• Weight: 5,34 kg
• Finish: Lost-wax casting, chased and patinated by hand

Craftsmanship

The lost-wax method yields the solid casting; everything after that is handwork. Faces, arms and ball are highlighted within the golden-brown patina, while the folds of the jerseys stay dark. The grass base sits on a round plinth of black marble.

Care

A dry microfibre cloth is enough for regular care. Because the patina is applied by hand, each example turns out slightly different.
