Red Squirrel Wall Mounted Sculpture In Cold Cast Bronze

£125.00

Red Squirrel wall mounted sculpture. Hand made in cold cast bronze. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor display. 

‘Maple’ is a red squirrel wall sculpture showing the head and shoulders of this native British mammal in intricate detail. She is the first in the new ‘Heads Up!’ range from the Kirsty Armstrong Sculpture studio featuring heads of British Wildlife. (A Hare, Fox, and a Badger will also soon become part of this 3-dimensional wall mounted series).

The red squirrel piece is presented in a stylish rigid black gift box with a magnetic catch, ready for gifting.

The original work was hand sculpted in modelling wax using traditional sculpting techniques. The finished piece was subsequently moulded, and then hand cast in real bronze and resin. They are cast in the English Lake District, where some of the last remaining red squirrel populations still live. They are then polished and finished by me in my Cumbrian studio.

There is a robust metal keyhole-type mounting plate securely glued and screwed in place on the reverse. The back is also neatly felted on the indoor pieces.

Description

Maple is the Sixth Red Squirrel sculpture I’ve produced. She is hand made in cold cast bronze, which is a mixture of real bronze and resin. It is an open edition made in small batches in the English Lake District.

How ‘Maple’ was made…

I’ve been an animal and wildlife sculptor for more than 35 years. ‘Maple’ was first sculpted by hand in wax using traditional sculpting techniques.

This cold cast bronze piece is suitable for in the gone as well as outside* attached to a wall, fence or tree.
*For outside use, the lacquered option must be chosen from the drop down menu at the check out. 

’Maple’s vital statistics… 

She is  tall  wide and    deep

Delivery…

Please check the current processing times in the short description.

Finally, a little bit of name-dropping…

His Majesty King Charles owns one of my first red squirrel sculptures… ‘Charles’ lives at Birkhall on the Balmoral estate in Scotland after being presented to his majesty in 2011.

In the case of the larger items, an amount is also added to cover the time to pack them and to book the parcel in with the courier.
