Traditional Casting of Bone Resin

This lovely Panther is incredibly smooth and graceful and the natural bone from horns give it the deep, rich color of bronze.
It is very nice to hold because of the balance and smoothness. 
The base is so smooth, you don’t have to worry about scratching fine furniture.
Artistically crafted with great muscle tone, this is a beautiful and unusual piece. Appropriate in the finest home, this is a rare find and a real beauty.

How Is It Made ?

     What gives Artist Bone Resin art value beyond that of a “souvenir” that ends up in a closet? There are many reasons including cost of materials (, silicone for molds, tools, ovens, etc.) The main reason is there are very few people trained in the tedious process. These are  not easy to make and many time consuming, difficult steps are involved. In a world of hi-tech mass production, casting remains essentially unchanged.

• artist’s original model
• silicone mold of the model
