A timeless classical form with a dramatic, modern presence.
This David bust has been hand finished using chalk pastes and layers of gold gilding wax, creating a rich blend of deep plum tones and warm metallic highlights. As the light moves across the face and curls, the gold catches beautifully, giving the piece depth, contrast and real impact.
Although the bust is resin, the surface has been carefully stippled to recreate the look and feel of textured painted plaster. It has that studio, gallery quality rather than the appearance of a flat, factory finish.
It’s bold, moody and made to be noticed – perfect for maximalist interiors, dark walls, eclectic spaces or anyone who loves classical art interpreted in a contemporary way.
This is the sort of piece that instantly elevates a shelf, console or sideboard and becomes a natural focal point in the room.
