Aphrodite

1.500,00 

A timeless celebration of grace and divinity, this sculptural bust depicts Aphrodite — the goddess of love and beauty — as immortalized in the Aphrodite of Menophantos, a marble masterpiece housed in the National Roman Museum and dated to the 1st century BC. The serene elegance of her features, framed by delicately styled hair, expresses an ideal of beauty that transcends eras.

Cast in aged-effect plaster, the bust reveals a harmonious balance of softness and strength: the smooth contours of the face, the poised expression, and the faintest suggestion of motion in the hair all echo the artistic ideals of classical sculpture. The light patina enhances its antique charm, adding depth and quiet nobility to the piece.

The bust is supported by a minimal yet luxurious base in powder-coated steel, wrapped entirely in fine leather with contrasting hand stitching. This refined foundation creates a dialogue between ancient muse and modern setting, enriching interiors with subtle grandeur.

An object of poetic stillness and sculptural perfection, this bust is a tribute to eternal femininity — a piece that illuminates any space with its quiet, enduring allure.

Handmade in Italy.

To preserve the beauty of the leather finish, avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. Clean leather surfaces only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with mild soap and water. Gently dry after cleaning. Any natural variations in tone or markings are distinctive features of the material, which will develop a unique patina over time.
