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

During the 18th and 19th centuries, European travellers on the Grand Tour acquired small plaster reliefs and intaglios as tactile records of classical antiquities and famous sculptures.

These decorative objects were cast using fine gypsum plaster or gesso, frequently patinated with wax or natural pigments and set within metal or timber frames.

Authentic period examples exhibit crisp detail in the classical subjects, subtle surface discolouration from age, and period-appropriate metal or turned wood frames with integral hanging fixtures.

Plaster reliefs can be displayed within gallery wall arrangements, positioned on open shelving alongside books, or mounted in narrow wall spaces to introduce historic texture.

Remove dust using a soft, dry cosmetic or artist brush, keeping the piece away from moisture and harsh cleaning agents that could dissolve the untreated plaster.
