Elephant With a Rosette Headpiece Marble Statue - 220cm $32,54900
Description

An elephant stands head turned, a rosette set at the centre of its carved headpiece. An elaborate headpiece centres upon a rosette, with beading across brow and cheek and a draped cloth behind. The ears are spread and folded and the tusks are short. Beneath is a pedestal banded with lotus lobes, a rosette frieze and a key-fret course. White marble, grey veining drifting through the ears, the flank and the pedestal courses. A single animal on its pedestal is what is priced.

A Headpiece That Has to Line Up

The ornament on this elephant's head is not one thing but three that must agree: a rosette at the centre of the brow, a beaded band running back from it over each cheek, and the fall of the cloth behind. If the rosette sits a few millimetres off centre the whole head looks crooked, because a face gives the eye a symmetry to measure against that a flank does not. So the brow is centre-lined before any ornament is cut, the rosette set out from that line, and the beaded bands stepped off in matching pairs working outward from it - never one side and then the other copied, which is how a drift of half a bead becomes a visible list.

At this height the ornament that repays close looking is well out of reach, and the piece works instead as a silhouette and a mass. That suits a long approach - a drive, a gateway, the far end of a courtyard - where it is read at thirty paces and again at ten. At 220cm the headpiece rosette sits far above the eye, so distance suits it best. It also needs a firm bed: at over six tonnes on a narrow footprint the bearing under it matters more than it would for a squatter piece. White marble with grey veining carries well against brick and dark hedging.

Tall Enough to Need Distance

Twenty-two to twenty-four weeks. Setting out the headpiece rosette and the harness beading together comes first, so the two align across the brow. The pedestal courses are cut, their lobes, rosette frieze and key-fret worked, and the beds dressed flat. The animal comes from its own block: roughed standing, legs as columns, body and the folded ears next. The brow is centre-lined and the headpiece cut from that line outward. The draped cloth and its oval device follow. The trunk is last of the animal. No pinning and no filler occur in the animal, and its pedestal beds dry below. Near 6,214kg for one animal and pedestal, craned apart onto a concrete foundation. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.

Harnessed animals gather through animal sculptures, and the tallest of them in life size large statues.

Two large, black bear-shaped sculptures stand indoors near a window with a view of a yard. One sculpture is in the foreground with its back to the viewer, and the other faces forward, creating a mirrored effect. Trees and a chair are visible outside.
A shiny metallic bear sculpture stands on the corner of a modern buildings patio, mirrored by another similar black figure in the foreground. The area features minimalistic architecture with large glass windows.
