Marble Sculpting

There are many ways to design stone carvings. Relief: carving a three-dimensional image on the stone surface, which is a semi vertical sculpture. Because the image is embossed on the stone surface, it is called relief. According to the depth of the stone surface, it can be divided into shallow relief and high relief. Shallow relief is a single level statue, which has a single content and is not hollowed out. High relief is a multi-level sculpture with complicated contents. It is more attractive to use openwork techniques to hollow out. The reliefs are mostly used for the wall decoration of buildings, as well as the dragon columns and holding drums of temples.
