This is a precise REPLICA of a 1950's department store display bust
that was molded directly from a vintage model. This particular model is from Canada and
has a very unique French style. She radiates a very classy and sophisticated look while
retaining a "girl next door" sweetness. The ears are pierced but because the
lobes are not open on the backside, the earring nuts cannot be used; the posts just rest
in the holes. The approximate height is 15" and the forehead circumference is 21
1/2". Apparel is not included in the sale.
This model was cast in US Gypsum #1 casting plaster (much stronger and more chip-resistant
than normal plaster). I prefer plaster because it is historically correct, is timeless,
and stable for many generations to come.
Our models closely resemble the originals in weight and feel and carry the original and
charming mold marks that are characteristic of handcrafted work. These marks should not be
considered defects and only add character to the artwork. Our models are made to look,
feel, smell and taste very similar to what the vintage model would when new (no better, no
worse). These replicas are in no way ever meant to deceive and the undersides of the bases
are hand-scribed with the year, our signature, and are numbered in the order that they are
made.
