Tiger Cub from Edge Sculpture by Matt Buckley
The OMGC says...
This Tiger Cub Edge Sculpture is a great example of their dynamic and organic feeling sculptures which have been originally sculpted from clay. The finished clay sculp ‘masters’ are then taken to be moulded and then using ceramic polystone the subsequent pieces have been hand cast. This means that each piece has a faithful reproduction of detail and texture that was applied to the original sculpt. Each piece is then hand painted and finished, meaning each one is a unique centre piece to any room in the house.
Matt Buckley started off his sculpting career over 20 years ago having had many years working with his Step Father, Robert Harrop to perfect his skills.

Tiger Tiger, burning bright, In the forests of the night;
What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

About the range: Edge Sculpture
Presenting a most striking collection of contemporary sculpture. Emotionally evocative, fiercely modern, yet remaining utterly affordable, Edge Sculpture is designed and sculpted by Matt Buckley at his studios in Shropshire, England.
Edge Sculpture is a collection influenced by style rather than subject. The mix of form, light and texture gives a unique feel to each individual piece. Each subject has been originally sculpted from clay, which allows the creation of pieces that deliver both a dynamic and organic feel. We then develop both the cases and moulds which ensure the faithful reproduction of the original clay sculpture with our special blend of marble stone castings. The finishing touch is the skilful application of hand-painting with the end result being a statement piece and talking point for anyone’s home!
