St. Michael marble statue
The Franco Spagnoli marble workshop is proud to had collaborated to te beauty of St. Jude Church.
Thanks our well known artistic skill we was selected to reproduce the life size St. Michael marble statue.
Starting from a photo and thanks the plaster concept we received from our customer ,we’ve carved this beautiful statue .
Each detail was checked and approved from final customer before the shipment. The material used is white Carrara marble, that Franco Spagnoli took directly from quarry close to the workshop.
Summary of the project
The big deal at this project was sometimes high quality details of carvings and highest quality of marble avaible is not enought. In this particular project has taken a central role the veins contained within the block of marble. This was possibile thanks the collaboration between the architect’s vision and our experience.
Franco Spagnoli spent 5 days upto the Carrara quarries in the company of the architect to search the block of marble that would meet the particular request. Thanks to our deep-rooted knowledge of marble and land we have obtained the much requested result.
