A Collectible Figurine.....
From a Bag of Clay to Casting

A collectible figurine in all its finery
comes from very humble beginnings....

Simply a bag of clay

from this.....

with a bit of input from a master sculptor

to this.....

A finished clay ceramic sculpture prior to mould making and production.

The care and attention to detail that Peter has taken
on this new work is evident from every angle.

PRESENTING.....

"Rose Garden"

by ceramic sculpting expert Peter Holland

Watch Peter Holland introduce the finished figurine and find out how to
"RESERVE YOUR OWN SPECIAL EDITION NUMBER"

The sculpture has now been 'Blocked' or moulded by our highly skilled blocker and the first cast has been taken. This is always a 'moment of truth' - Has the moulding gone ok? Has the first cast come out of the mould successfully?

"Rose Garden" Has an extra potential problem to most other limited edition figurines - That is - her parasol. It has to be joined onto the figure in exactly the right place to ensure that the handle lines up properly between her hand and the centre of the parasol. (Fortunately, at this stage, we are happy to report that it does!)

Our Special Touch" ..... is a FREE (and newly updated) online pamphlet which chronicles the journey of a bone china figurine from the bag of sculpting clay to when you hold it in your hand at home.

As our most prestigious collectible figurines are developed, we will update these pages to show their progress from pure white china cast to a fully decorated things of beauty.
