Decorative Wall Plaques for Home Decor  Grape Festival Plaque Dancing Angels Plaque $430 $348

The original wall plaques were made of flat slabs of marble that has been engraved and would be put on a wall for decoration. Our plaques are made of hydrostone and come with your choice of any one out of ten different custom faux finishes. The wall plaques above are for sell and show bathing children, birds and graceful greek ladies in dynamic positions created out of the sense of form and line that has made the Greeks world famous in the field of architecture and fine sculpture. The Greeks had plenty of beautiful marble at their disposal and so used it freely for temples sculptures, urns and wall plaques. They were not always satisfied with the cold whiteness of marble, however, and would paint over both their statues and their buildings on occasion. Some statues have been found with the bright colors still preserved, but most of them lost their paint through weathering and are plain as stone now.
