Bas relief technical information

Bas-relief sculptures project only slightly from the background surface.

Materials

Bas relief pieces are typically created by sculpting an original and then casting the finished piece in plaster, Jesmonite or cold pour bronze. Often we send out the bas relief on a panel or series of panels. Options will be explored and agreed upon during the Design Phase.

Installation

Peascod does not provide framing nor installation for panelled work, but we are happy to discuss options, suggest potential installers or liaise with your joiners, metalworkers and installers.

About Jesmonite 

Jesmonite make solvent free sculpting materials which contain no VOCs (volatile organic compounds), an important quality when producing sculptural pieces for interiors. Their casting materials are strong and durable which can take exceptional detail. The finished products feel heavy, matt and cool, akin to stone or plaster. 

Depending on the sculpting design, we may be able to produce bas relief pieces with a fire resistant Jesmonite material.
