The scene sits in a recessed field, and a carved anthemion and palmette border runs round the outside of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWall Sculpture Bordered in Anthemion and Palmette\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe border is where the carving shows itself. Each palmette is undercut and the arrises between them are left crisp rather than softened, which takes a steady hand and is the first thing to go in a rushed piece. The marble is a cool white with subtle grey tonal shading, honed matte.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA narrative panel of this proportion suits a library, a study, a college or civic interior, a stair landing or a formal drawing room. It rewards a wall where the story can be read without crowding, and it wants a room people linger in rather than a corridor they pass along.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Recessed Field and How It Hangs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeven weeks, and the border sets the pace rather than the figures. Every palmette is undercut and the arris between them left crisp, which is the first thing to go in a rushed piece and the reason the schedule is what it is. Panel proportion is yours, and the anthemion border can be exchanged for a plain stepped moulding. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.
