Description

Horse – Bay by Edge Sculpture ED07

Each sculpture has been originally sculpted from clay, which allows the sculptor to be freer, giving the pieces the dynamic and organic fee, stylised by Edge Sculpture. The finished clay sculp ‘masters’ are then taken to be moulded, and each subsequent piece has been carefully hand cast from this mould using ceramic polystone, which allows for faithful reproduction of detail and texture applied to the original sculpt. the finishing touch is the skilful application of hand painting and finishing, which brings the sculpt to life. The end result is a centre piece and talking point in anyone’s living room!

Matt Buckley started off his sculpting career over 20 years ago having been afforded the opportunity to hone his craft by following in the footsteps of his step father, Robert Harrop, by working on the ‘Country Companions’ and later named ‘Doggie People’ range which have resided successfully to this day within the ‘giftware’ and ‘collectible’ industry for well over 25 years themselves.

Licensed figurines that Matt has both sculpted personally and directed include the Beano and Dandy, Camberwick Green, Roald Dahl, Bagpuss, 2000 AD, The Magic Roundabout, Mr Benn and Gerry Anderson’s Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Stingray, with many pieces being continually produced to this date.

Matt remains the Creative Director of Robert Harrop Designs LTD and indeed the skills and ability to manufacture quality figurines from within their family run company in Shropshire has enabled this very new collection of work to become a reality and Edge Sculpture to thrive.

I love my horse and I’ll tell you why He’s the best horse around and that is no lie He’s tough and smart and always does the right thing Whatever I ask and rides like a dream

He’s not the biggest horse in the barn He’s kind of laid back, like he doesn’t give a darn He’s pretty, no doubt, but that isn’t what shows It’s his heart that’s so big, that it overflows

I know what he’s thinking though he can’t say the words He’s listened to me when I needed to be heard He’s as loyal a friend as I’ve ever had Always happy to see me and never makes me feel bad

He trusts me with his life, and I trust him with mine It’s a bond that’s never broken, and gets stronger with time When we’re on the trail, there’s no better place to be Than enjoying the woods, just my horse and me
