Water and weather resistant, it’s designed for versatile indoor and outdoor display, combining classical artistry with practical longevity. ## Description Material & Manufacture process: Cast Alabaster Cast Alabaster statues are made from a material in which natural crushed Greek Alabaster stone is mixed with a small quantity of resin that works as a glue. Αlabaster was very widely used for small sculpture for indoor use in the ancient world, especially in Ancient Greece , Egypt and Mesopotamia . The mixture is then poured into a mold of the statue design. Because the powder is so fine the smallest details can be reproduced using this method. Over 90% of the finished sculpture is natural crushed Greek Alabaster stone, which gives it a look and feel of solid natural marble. All sculptures are finished by hand to ensure the finest quality. This strong material is water and weather resistant, doesn't have bubbles, will not crack, and can be washed with most cleaning agents. Please note: Our statues are not carved. The alabaster we use is not the calcite alabaster variety which is also known as onyx-marble, Egyptian alabaster, or Oriental alabaster. Natural marble statues are hand carved and command a very hefty price. Our product offerings are intended to be affordable to the majority public. ## Features - Handmade in Greece - Dimensions (approximately): Height: 17 cm (6.69 inches) Width: 7 cm (2.76 inches) Depth: 9 cm (3.54 inches) Weight: 626 gr (1.38 lb) - This article is based on the statue of Socrates exhibited in front of National Academy building in Athens by the Italian sculptor Piccarelli (from 19. cent.) - Socrates (470/469 – 399 BC) was a classical Greek Athenian philosopher credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy.
