The terracotta figurines are made from baked clay, handcrafted, and then carefully finished.

Their appearance is authentically ancient, and each terracotta figurine has subtle differences.

The Terracotta Army, also known as "figurines of warriors and horses buried with the dead" (bīngmǎ yǒng), is a collection of nearly eight thousand terracotta sculptures of soldiers and horses, representing the army of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China; it was intended to protect the emperor on his journey after death, ensuring his safety and power even in the afterlife.

Kneeling Archers: These statues depict kneeling archers, ready to fire their bows and arrows at the enemy. Their posture demonstrates their concentration and skill in archery.

* The surface is treated with an aged polychrome finish , with green-grey hues , evoking an oxidized patina of the antique bronze type .

This deliberately aged treatment allows us to recreate the look of an old object marked by time, while maintaining an elegant and authentic decorative finish.


Each piece has slight variations in color, a result of the handcrafted finishing process.
