Antique weathered stone head
Another item from my personal collection………
This amazing architectural salvage was purchased, after much persuasion, from a demolition yard that had demolished a gothic church in Teesside.
The piece was one of four heads on the church steeple but as it had slight damage to head and beard , the owner agreed to sell me the piece.
The head has a stunning, weathered, green finish to it with a dark-overlayed patina. The bust features a bearded male in the archaic or medieval aesthetic .
The bearded male, with a prominent moustache , features strong facial lines, deep-set eyes, and an authoritative look about it. The bust does have some slight damage to the hair and beard, which is to be expected due to its age!
This one off, hand crafted, antique piece would make a stunning addition to any mancave, tattoo studio, interior design or retail display.

THIS ITEM IS NOW SOLD
Shiva Nataraja, the Lord of the Cosmic Dance.
This iconic representation originates from Hindu art and tradition, most famously developed in South India during the Chola dynasty.
This figure represents the perpetual, simultaneous cycles of creation, preservation, and destruction that animate the entire universe.
The ring of fire surrounding Shiva represents the manifest material universe, time, and cosmic energy. Shiva is shown with four arms to represent superhuman power. His upper right hand holds the damaru (a small hour-glass shaped drum) which beats the rhythm of creation. His upper left hand holds agni (the flame of cosmic destruction). His lower right hand is in the abhaya mudra (fear-not gesture), offering protection, while his lower left hand points toward his raised leg, symbolizing salvation and liberation.
Shiva balances his right leg directly on top of a dwarf demon, Apasmara, who symbolizes ignorance, illusion, and materialism over which spiritual wisdom triumphs.
A well cast, spiritual figure with superb patina.

THIS ITEM IS NOW SOLD
Bust of Jesus Christ wearing the Crown of Thorns.
Another piece from my personal collection. This piece was purchased several years ago from a Belgian market. The bust is heavily based on classic 19th and early 20th-century devotional designs by European sculptors like Richard Aurili and Eugène Marioton.
The piece captures the emotional gravity of the Ecce Homo style, depicting Christ looking upward in sorrow and devotion during his suffering.
This large plaster bust features a bright, metallic gold-bronze effect, giving it a rich patina look.
The bust has stylized flowing hair, a detailed beard, and an integrated plinth base at the bottom designed to sit stably on surfaces.
An amazing piece for interior design, retail, tattoo parlour, mancave or home.
