FAQs

During the 18th and 19th centuries, wealthy travellers undertaking the Grand Tour frequently purchased carved alabaster models of famous classical ruins and architectural structures in Italy as souvenirs.

Craftsmen typically utilised natural gypsum alabaster, turning and carving the stone on lathes and by hand to replicate the fine details of classical columns, domes, and bases.

Authentic period pieces often display natural mineral veining, hand-tooled tool marks, minor historical wear, and a warm translucent patina developed over centuries of handling.

This piece can be placed upon a bookshelf, mantelpiece, or desk to add classical architectural form and texture, contrasting sharply against modern minimalist surfaces.

Alabaster is a soft and water-soluble mineral; therefore, pieces should be cleaned exclusively with a dry microfiber cloth and kept away from moisture and direct sunlight.
