A limited edition in fine porcelain crafted by master sculptor, David Fryer, 'The Floral Egg' is available from davidfryerstudios.co.uk in an edition limited to just 25 worldwide.
'The Floral Egg' is one of the finest works of art to emanate from David Fryer's studios. Every tiny brush-stroke is lovingly applied to create this homage to Faberge.
The processes involved in the creation of a sculpture of this brilliance are extremely complex. From his original rough sketches, David Fryer 'breathes life into porcelain', creating a model that is technically accurate and artistically perfect. From modelling the original sculpture in wax, through casting, firing and painting, a variety of traditional techniques must be perfectly combined before the porcelain sculpture is complete.
The hallmark of a consummate artist
Together, these qualities bear witness to the consummate skill of a master craftsman, an artist at ease with his medium. Now you can acquire one of North America's favourite birds, delicately portrayed in fine porcelain and incorporating the essence of their natural habitat.
6000 years of tradition
The superb detail of the mount has been achieved using the ancient technique of 'lost wax'bronze casting, first used by the Egyptians more than 6000 years ago - and still used today when the finest detail and strength is required.
