Project Detail
Stone Central were contacted as one of the few companies with the expertise to work with and move large statues. The client had a range of large statues in storage that had suffered some damage due to different transportations over the years.
We were contracted to restore and repair the statues; this included carving and replacing missing limbs and digits, reattaching broken heads and limbs and ensuring the restoration was seamless to the original pieces. Once repaired to their original state, we then installed the statues on plinths, and to further add to the aesthetic we also installed large stone urns alongside the statues. In total 120 statues and 120 urns were placed around the development.
The finished project is a great addition to the area.
