Description
Faces of Heritage is a mixed set of four pieces made from hand-made textured fibreglass: two wall panels and two free-standing carved busts on plinths. Panel one is a dense carved relief in tan and ochre with an irregular edge. Panel two is quite different, with a dark ground carrying an orange, white and black mosaic-like pattern. The two busts are carved heads, each a different face, set on turned plinths. The panels hang on the wall while the busts stand on the floor. Together the two wall panels span 300cm wide by 270cm high and cover 8.10 sq m; the busts stand alongside and add nothing to that wall coverage.
This set suits larger open rooms where there is space to read the panels from a distance and room on the floor for the busts to stand freely. It appeals to people who like sculptural, gallery-style pieces and who want to mix wall-mounted work with objects that occupy the floor. We find it works well in living rooms, studios and spacious dining rooms, and it draws attention in any setting where the walls are broad enough to carry both panels together.
Each piece is cast and finished by hand, so the texture and edges vary slightly from one to the next. The full set weighs 84 kg, spread across the two panels and the two busts. The panels are wall-mounted and should be fixed with fittings suited to your wall type and their weight; we recommend anchoring into solid support. The busts simply stand on a level floor and need no fixing. To clean, wipe with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. For styling, we suggest hanging the two panels as a pair and placing the busts nearby so the carved faces sit in dialogue with the relief above them.

Frequently Asked
What is this set made from?
Every piece is made from hand-made textured fibreglass, cast and finished by hand, so slight variation in texture and edge from piece to piece is normal.
What exactly arrives?
You receive four pieces in total: two wall panels and two free-standing carved busts on turned plinths. The panels hang on the wall and the busts stand on the floor.
How do the pieces go together?
The two panels are designed to hang together as a pair, and the two busts stand nearby on the floor. There is no fixed arrangement, so you can position the busts wherever suits your space.
How are the panels fixed?
The panels are wall-mounted and should be secured with fittings suited to your wall type and their weight. We recommend anchoring into solid support. The busts need no fixing and simply stand on a level floor.
How much wall space do I need?
The two wall panels together span 300cm wide by 270cm high and cover 8.10 sq m. This figure describes the panels only; the busts stand on the floor and take up no wall space.
