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. 100% Natural marble statues are hand carved and command a very
hefty price. Our product offerings are intended to be affordable to the
majority public.
The myth of Psyche and Eros
The myth of Psyche and Eros is probably one of the most beautiful Greek myths; it has been told and retold in several different versions and it has inspired artists all over the world. The archetype of the Greek myth of Psyche and Eros appears regularly in movies and artifacts even today.
Psyche – the gorgeous maiden was a woman gifted with extreme beauty and grace, one of the mortal women whose love and sacrifice for her beloved God Eros earned her immortality.
Psyche became, as Greek word “psyche” implies, the deity of soul. To modern days, the myth of Psyche symbolizes a self-search and personal growth through learning, losing, and saving the real love.
