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.

HERAIA FESTIVAL – FLOWER BEARER

In ancient
Greece girls bearing Flowers participated in the Heraia Festival. The Heraia
were a festival dedicated to Hera. Like the Olympic Games this festival
contained athletic competitions and was held at Olympia. However, only women
were allowed to compete at the Heraia. Figures with
no clothes are peculiarly common in the art of the Western world. The nude
first became significant in the art of ancient Greece, where  athletic
competitions  at   religious festivals  celebrated the
human body. The nudes of Greco-Roman art are conceptually perfected ideal
persons, each one a vision of health, youth, geometric clarity, and organic
equilibrium.
