John Richard Hummingbird And Selenite Sculpture Ii
Gracefully balancing on a hexagonal marble base is a stunning depiction of a brass hummingbird upon a white selenite flower with amethyst buds. Marble is a naturally occurring stone mined for its beauty in various regions of the world. The chemical and mineral composition of the marble from the locale it is found, creates the vast array of color and pattern variations seen in this classic decorative material. Each piece will be unique due to the intrinsic variations in the veining patterns and color. The color of the grain may range from pale gray to black. Selenite is a natural crystalline material. By its sheer nature, imperfections such as other mineral deposits, which may appear as colored sections or varying crystalline structure, are not only expected, but indeed add to the beauty of the piece. The softness of selenite may result in separation of sections of crystal, which can be reattached with the use of a clear adhesive. Hexagonal Base -6.25 X 6.25 X 1.5
