| The client had an antique carved wooden statue. He wanted this replicated and cast in a fine grade (to show all details) of outdoor cement in order to make outdoor tables, each consisting of two statues supporting a table top. From the original carved wooden statue, Pierre first made a mould. Here you can see the white stiffened outer mould and the two-part wooden support (meeting at the "parting line". You can't see the inner rubber "skin" that captures all the details (for that see the examples shown in the Lion Table Project). When the two halves are closed, the complete mould will be turned upside down for pouring the casting material.
