Each ridge is accented with hand-painted gold detailing that follows the curve of the arch, creating a contrast between the polished white marble surface and the metallic lines. The marble itself shows subtle grey veining that varies between individual pieces depending on the section of stone used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a tabletop or shelf accent, the sculpture works on console tables, mantels, sideboards and open shelving where its 18cm height and 4.5kg weight give it a solid presence without dominating adjacent objects. The arch form reads clearly in silhouette from multiple angles, making it suitable for central placements where it can be viewed from different directions. The 8.5cm depth keeps the footprint compact enough for narrow shelves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Genoa sculpture is hand-carved from a single block of marble, so the exact positioning of the grey veining and the tone of the white vary between pieces. The gold paint is applied by hand along each ridge, giving slight variation in line weight and coverage that's typical of artisan finishing rather than machine application. The polished marble surface accepts light without creating harsh reflections, while the gold detailing catches and redirects ambient light to emphasise the ridged geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (WxDxHcm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 x 8.5 x 18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTexture\/Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMarble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.5KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the marble vary between pieces?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Each Genoa sculpture is carved from natural marble, so the grey veining pattern and the exact tone of the white differ between individual pieces. This is a characteristic of natural stone, not a defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the gold detailing applied?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold is hand-painted onto each ridge after carving and polishing. Because it's applied by hand, the line weight and coverage vary slightly between ridges and between individual sculptures, giving each piece a slightly different character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should the marble be cleaned?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe gently with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust. For more stubborn marks, use a barely-damp microfibre cloth with distilled water. Avoid household cleaners, sprays or polishes, as marble is porous and can stain or etch when exposed to acidic or alkaline substances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the sculpture stable on smooth surfaces?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 18cm x 8.5cm base and 4.5kg weight give the sculpture a low centre of gravity that's stable on flat surfaces. The polished marble base sits flush on most tabletops, shelves and mantels without rocking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Libra Interiors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51725139345675,"sku":"706383","price":108.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/706383_libra_ddfe51c1-b7e3-43f5-89cc-ca6c41c764f3.jpg?v=1750340836","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/genoa-white-marble-arch-sculpture-with-gold-detailing-18cm","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
