Description
The fascination which mushrooms have exerted over humans since the dawn of civilization and for an artist, the possibilities are endlessly fascinating. This mushroom sculpture on a French wine vine is a unique, one of a kind piece.
The vine wood comes from the vineyards around my home here in France and are the very old vines that are discarded after producing wine grapes for many years. The wood is cleaned and oiled to preserve it. The mushrooms are hand-sculpted from cold porcelain and colored with natural pigments. Their stalks are beautiful copper, bronze and champagne color wire that sit in hand formed white lichen.
SIZE:
Approx.: 23L x 14W x 15H cm (9″ x 5.5″ x 6″
PLEASE NOTE: You will receive this exact mushroom sculpture and there is only one like this. They cannot be duplicated as no two vines are ever the same.
The mushroom sculpture will arrive in its own box that has been purposely made for it. This is to ensure its safe arrival to you but also so that you have somewhere safe to store it or move it when necessary.
