Steel Designer Dancing Dress sculpture, for Indoors and Outside in the garden by the Specialist in this Field Dawn Boys-Stones who writes….
“Based on the Vera Wang spring bridal collection, this is the first piece in a collection of designer wear. Life size and made of hundreds of individually cut and welded pieces. Finished in resin, sand and matte black paint with antiqued ribbon corseted.
“This Sold very quickly as you would imagine; however if it inspires you to have a variation in size shape or material take this oportunity to contact her direct below, to tell her what you have in mind”
Please note that if this piece is kept outside for any length of time it will oxydise gradually getting a patina of rust, which should be treated from time with a suitable oil.

- The ArtParkS Guarantee
All the sculptures on the website are described by the artists themselves, stating the material they are made from and their dimensions. If they are stated to be suitable for outdoors, they have a guarantee of 10 years, subject to the effects of weathering, which will alter their colour and finish over the years unless you give them regular cleaning and maintenance.
For instance, bronze, and to a lesser extent bronze resin/cold cast bronze, will acquire a green patina, usually rather sought after. All can attract moss, lichen, and a greenish pollen, especially under trees, which should be removed regularly with warm water and washing-up liquid.
Iron and steel will oxidise (rust), and this falls outside our guarantee.
Organic material like wood and bark willow is variable and depends to a great extent on where it is sited. You should discuss any guarantee directly with the artist, as this too falls outside our guarantee.
- How Does ArtParkS Ensure Your Protection?
From the moment you place an order and pay ArtParkS, you are protected because half of the payment is immediately used to pay the artist’s deposit, while the other half is retained until the sculpture is delivered safely.
Insurance in transit should be arranged with the artist prior to ordering.
- Why Choose ArtParkS for Your Purchase?
When you choose a work of art from ArtParkS, you can be confident that it has been selected by ArtParkS’s curators and will be dispatched directly from the artist’s studio or foundry only after passing their quality control process.
