Designed and Handcrafted by Charles Elliott Sculpture, this stunning sculpture is forged from mild steel and features a luxurious, progressive Verdigris Aged Bronze exterior paired with a glowing gold gilt interior. Initially hot zinc galvanised, the piece is protected from the elements and rust for over 30 years.
Each sail piece is individually textured and finished by hand with a rich patina, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship of designer Charles.
Inspired by nature, the sculpture beautifully contrasts weather-aged patina on the outside with radiant, fresh gold on the inside. Perfect as a striking garden focal point or a sophisticated interior piece, it can also be custom-scaled and internally illuminated to suit your space.
One of our most illustrious sculptures;The Sail Sphere Sculpture. The method in which these sculptures are created & for that matter even started; is simple old-fashioned pencil to paper, this is where his ideas start to come to life. A sketch will be hand drawn by Charles within his studio, giving the sphere details & design prior to establishing sizes, measurements & dimensions. Once Charles is happy with the design , the “hanging basket” style mold frames will be placed on to the foot plate ready for each hand textured sail piece to be placed.
Each sail is carefully cut out in a selection of sizes before being heated to unimaginable temperatures enabling the team to then hand texture each piece with our 1920’s power hammer. The fine tuning of each piece is then popped onto the anvil whilst till smoulderingly hot to be shaped as required, the pieces are then ready to be carefully placed around the mold slowly forming the flawless spherical shape intended.
The spheres are created in 2 halves to ensure the perfect spherical shape. The two halves will be lifted off the mold frames & lowered down to be welded & infilled once safely together. Once each piece is in place & the team are happy the sphere is ready for the finishing process. Once entire, the sphere will undergo a sand blasting process to ensure an immaculate end article no matter which finish is chosen. For all of our spheres we offer the finish of the luxurious rustic patina,adding that stunning orangey toned finish or another option is our hot zinc galvanise finished, giving not only the longevity due to the process but providing a life long stunning silvery grey effect.
