Aphrodite - Goddess of Love & Beauty Statue

Aphrodite was the Olympian goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and procreation. She was depicted as a beautiful woman often accompanied by the winged godling Eros (Love). Her attributes included a dove, apple, scallop shell and mirror. In classical sculpture and fresco, she was usually depicted nude. Measures: 29cm(H) x 12cm(W) x 10cm(D) This item is made of Cold Cast Bronze. Cold cast bronze is when real powdered bronze metal is mixed in with resin. It is then cast into a mould creating a very realistic replica of a solid bronze piece. This process creates a high quality piece with much greater detail than you will see with a solid bronze piece. These pieces are hand painted to bring out beautiful detail.
