Big Beautiful Red Porcelain Rose In Lovely Base With Porcelain Leaves

$125

I sculpt the flowers that I make individually by hand, petal by petal. When I make roses I try for realism rather than perfection, so you may see slight imperfections in the petals, a small crack, etc. I learned to sculpt flowers long ago when I lived in Italy, in the city of Naples there are a group of artisans in the area of town called Capodimonte and I used to travel up there and just watch the artists making the flowers, they made it look so easy!!! I found out when I returned to the U.S.A. and attempted to make my own flowers, it is much, much more difficult than I thought, and it took me literally a year of trial and error before I was making acceptable looking flowers. The lovely rose is about 5.5 inches across, the tallest area of this is about 9.5 inches tall and it is roughly 9 inches across.. Check back from time to time, I'll be posting a lot more flowers, arrangements, etc. If there are certain flowers, or a bouquet, or something you would like made please let me know, the more detail the better, photos are helpful. I can make almost any type of flower!

I have been doing sculpture in different media for around 20 years and focusing more on woodwork lately. My specialty is carved wood furniture, ceramic flowers and now I'm starting to make some unique lighting fixtures/chandeliers.

I have a bachelor's degree in Business and am widely traveled, and have lived overseas in many countries so I have seen many different forms of artwork worldwide.

I was previously known as an electronics technician so I am beginning to add lighting to some of my projects. I am attempting to create a niche with custom music stands and carved end tables. I am skilled at cabinetmaking but prefer to make sculptural furniture, things with curves are much easier for me to make somehow. A few of the artists and woodworkers I consider to be strong influences in my life include Sam Maloof, Wendell Castle and Isamu Noguchi.
