Description

The Classical Male Torso Fragment Sculpture stands at 80cm and is carved from premium natural white marble — real stone, hand-worked from solid block. The piece presents the upper male torso in the tradition of classical antiquity: the chest, abdomen, and shoulder structure rendered with precise anatomical observation, the form intentionally truncated at the neck, upper arms, and lower abdomen in the manner of recovered ancient fragments. The white marble carries the characteristic luminosity and subtle veining of genuine statuary-grade stone, lending the surface a depth that no cast reproduction can replicate.

Antiquity's Fragment, Real Stone Craft

This marble torso sculpture draws directly from the classical tradition of the fragment — a convention in which the partial figure carries greater sculptural power than the complete form. The musculature across the pectorals, the definition of the abdominal wall, and the subtle rendering of the clavicular line are all resolved by hand from solid marble block, not cast or machine-finished. Our artisans work the stone surface to a smooth hand-polished finish that allows the natural grain of the hand-carved marble to read clearly under both natural and gallery lighting. Slight natural variation in veining and crystalline structure across the stone is inherent to the material and specific to each individual carving — no two pieces are identical.

At 80cm, the Classical Male Torso marble statue is scaled for interior placement — on a plinth or pedestal in an entrance hall, gallery-style living room, architect-designed study, or as a focal sculpture within a curated collection. The white marble works with neutral, warm stone, and dark contrast interiors. This piece is suitable for both indoor and outdoor display, and the genuine natural stone holds its finish through sustained exterior exposure.

Handmade to Order, Fully Customisable

Every marble sculpture is worked from premium natural marble by hand — 3–4 weeks standard, 5–6 weeks bespoke. Our artisans work from our main studios in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.

This natural stone carving is available in alternative marble varieties, at different scales, or as a fully bespoke commission — including different degrees of surface finish, alternative truncation points, or a custom interpretation of the classical torso form. Contact us to discuss options.
