This is a meticulously crafted 3D-printed Museum Replica of “The Stargazer,” an iconic Kilia-type figurine from Western Anatolia, dated to circa 3000 BC. Originally carved from translucent white marble, this Early Bronze Age artifact captures a nude female figure with a flat, schematic body, elongated neck, and distinctive upward-tilted head. This reproduction retains the statuette’s minimalist elegance, featuring carved details such as eyes, nose, ears, and a pubic triangle, reflecting its historical and artistic significance.
The Stargazer is available in the following material options:
– White Nylon: Produced through a polishing process, this option offers a smooth-to-touch surface at an economical price point. Ideal for a lightweight, durable replica with a clean, matte finish.
– Black Nylon: Enhanced with a post-printing Color Touch finish, this material provides resistance to scratching, rubbing, and external conditions. It ensures a consistent, uniform black color across production batches, delivering a high-quality, stable surface.
– Bronze: Crafted via metal casting, where a wax master model is 3D-printed and replaced with molten bronze in a plaster mold. This option yields a robust, elegant finish with a classic metallic sheen.
– Brass: Created through the same metal casting process, brass offers a refined, golden-toned appearance, balancing durability and sophistication.
– Gold Plated Brass: A brass base, cast from a 3D-printed wax model, is electroplated with gold, resulting in a luxurious, lustrous finish that elevates the replica’s aesthetic.
– White Rhodium Plated Brass: Cast in brass and coated with white rhodium, this option delivers a sleek, silver-like finish with a modern, polished appeal.
Each material preserves the statuette’s sleek form and cultural resonance, making this replica a tangible connection to the Chalcolithic era.
