Know before you buy
The piece is cast in high-quality designer resin. This material allows for the intricate detailing of the original British architectural sculpture while remaining durable and relatively lightweight.
Yes, it includes the necessary hanging hardware. Given its 4-pound weight, it can be securely mounted on most standard wall surfaces.
The finish is an antique stone look, which provides a matte, textured appearance. It is designed to mimic the aesthetic of aged architectural stonework rather than a glossy or modern plastic finish.
Because of its lunette shape, it is specifically designed to be displayed above architectural features like doorways, mantels, or credenzas. Its 24-inch width makes it a substantial focal point for these types of spaces.
While it is cast in durable resin, it is primarily intended for interior decor. Prolonged exposure to harsh outdoor elements may affect the antique stone finish over time.
