One wing lifts behind her and her drapery falls over the front face of the plinth toward the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrieving Angel Curled Over Her Knees\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe whole figure is one closed shape and that is the point: nothing projects, so nothing can break, and the only stone standing clear is the single raised wing. She is carved from the same block as the plinth cap so there is no joint at the seat, which matters on a narrow plinth where a joint would sit at eye level. The marble carries grey veining through the raised wing and warm ochre down the plinth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe footprint here is narrow, so this suits a single plot, a lawn section that permits an upright, a cremation plot or a memorial garden bed. Because the figure is closed and reads as a silhouette, it works against planting or a hedge where a spread figure would be lost. Check the burial authority limits on height and footprint before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Narrow Footprint and a Tall Plinth\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine weeks. The plinth is squared and its cap trued before the figure is begun, and the figure is taken from the same block as that cap so the seat has no joint in it. The raised wing is freed last of all. The plinth is delivered uncut, ready for a name and dates in whatever lettering suits you, or bare for your own mason to letter on site.
