This Crab shell has been transformed through the lost wax process into bronze, and custom commissioned by Modern Art Foundry. We present the hard outer shell of the crustacean that both protects from predators and provides support… what more could we want to be reminded of, not to mention our times at the edge of the sea?
The patina is a natural bronze with subtle highlights. Measuring 2 inches by 1 ¾ inches wide by 5/8 inches high. Limited edition, it weighs 2 oz. Ready for shipping.
