The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Orientalist sculpture of the 19th century features romanticised depictions of Near Eastern, North African, and Middle Eastern subjects, characterised by detailed drapery, traditional attire, and intricate ornamentation.

Polychrome sculptures were crafted by casting the figure in bronze or spelter, followed by the application of cold-painted enamels, lacquers, or patinas to achieve multi-coloured surface finishes.

Authentic period figures display crisp casting details, genuine age-related surface wear, foundry marks or sculptor signatures, and an established weight consistent with cast metal.

A polychrome metal figure functions as a focal point on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or desk, adding historical narrative and textured depth to contemporary or traditional schemes.

Dust the surface gently with a soft microfibre cloth or dry soft-bristled brush, avoiding water, chemical solvents, or abrasive polishes that could lift the delicate cold-painted pigments.
