Material & Manufacture process: Cast Marble

Cast Marble statues are made from a composite material in which natural
crushed Greek Marble stone is mixed with a small quantity of resin that works
as a glue. The mixture is then poured into a mold of the statue design. Because
the powder is so fine the smallest details can be reproduced using this method.
Over 90% of the finished sculpture is natural crushed Greek Marble stone, which
gives it a look and feel of solid natural marble. All sculptures are finished
by hand to ensure the finest quality. This strong material is water and weather
resistant, doesn’t have bubbles, will not crack, and can be washed with most
cleaning agents.

Please note: Our statues are not carved.
Natural marble statues are hand carved and command  a very hefty price.
Our product offerings are intended to be affordable to the majority public .

Our statue is a copy (in smaller
scale) of the famous ancient Greek – Roman sculpture known as «Centaur &
Cupid» 1^st – 2^nd A.D.
 attributed to sculptor Aphrodisias, which is now exhibited  in
Louvre Museum.

Eros (Roman
Cupid), the winged god of love, rides on the back of a Centaur. The creature
has the upper body of a man with shaggy hair and beard, and the lower body of a
horse.
