Their works restore the cultural background of the time very well, and the world also recognizes the realistic degree of the works.

The meaning of the marble bust
The marble bust is a static display form and a unique artistic expression of character modeling. To pursue an ideal beauty that can be spread forever, the sculptors chose the marble material. Busts usually have characters as the theme. , there are male busts and female busts. Although the shape of the bust sculpture is smaller, it pays more attention to the pursuit of ideal and perfect body proportions. Male busts mostly lack a muscular, broad chest, instead having a smaller head and a flat chest with a broad chest. Female busts highlight the soft beauty of shyness.
From a decoration point of view, busts are more convenient. A 60cm bust only weighs about 50 kg. And it doesn’t take up much space. It is not large enough to stand out in the room, so it does not cover up too much of the eye-catching focus created by the combination of other furniture.
Yes. You can create a real-life bust of yourself or your family. Our recommended size is 50-70 cm. Before creating a statue, you just need to provide us with a photo and biography of the creator.
The first step in creating a statue requires making a 1:1 clay model, which is critical. The clay sculptor will draw the model of the work on the clay model, and they will compare it repeatedly. If they find that a certain part is not in proportion, they can make modifications to the clay model. It’s up to you to decide whether the clay model is acceptable or not. When you are not satisfied with the clay model, we will continue to modify it until you are satisfied.
Carving a real portrait is an extremely complex and a great test of the craftsman’s skills. The human face is very complex: a massive mass of musculature, tissue and bones, rich in intricate details such as skin pores, wrinkles and hair.
All information can only be conveyed through photos, which requires the sculptor to capture the overall characteristics of the prototype well and study the distances and angles between various parts of the face: the height of the face, the angle of the jaw, the distance between the eye sockets and the characteristic shape of the cheeks and skull. The most important thing is to capture the character and spirit of the character through clothing and accessories. These skills have surpassed an ordinary craftsman. Only those with these skills can truly restore perfect and authentic work through the stone.
