Craftsmanship

Cast in solid bronze, the bust is chased by hand and given a brown-gold patina. Cap and goggles are joined by grille eyes, a side breathing filter and a collar of gears, while a floral ornament climbs the beak. A rectangular block of black marble with white veining carries it all.

Care

Remove dust with a soft brush or a dry cloth. Avoid cleaning agents so that the patina stays intact.
