Albatross Dance

This sculpture was modelled on wandering albatross dancing. The main material used is Britannia silver with some sterling silver. It was hand raised, constructed, soldered and riveted. Partly oxidised stainless-steel springs were used inside for the movement of the necks and heads. And the beaks were made with 9kt red gold and the eyes were set with onyx. The base is made of fibreboard, glue and coffee grounds.
