“Then the Elephant's Child sat back on his little haunches, and pulled, and pulled, and pulled, and his nose began to stretch. And the Crocodile floundered into the water, making it all creamy with great sweeps of his tail, and he pulled, and pulled, and pulled. And the Elephant's Child's nose kept on stretching; and the Elephant's Child spread all his little four legs and pulled, and pulled, and pulled, and his nose kept on stretching; and the Crocodile threshed his tail like an oar, and he pulled, and pulled, and pulled, and at each pull the Elephant's Child's nose grew longer and longer...”

from The Elephant's Child / How The Elephant Got His Trunk
by Rudyard Kipling

Presenting a most striking collection of contemporary sculpture. Emotionally evocative, fiercely modern, yet remaining utterly affordable.

Designed and sculpted in England by Matt Buckley at his studios in Shropshire, Edge Sculpture is a collection influenced by style rather than subject. The mix of form, light and texture gives a unique feel to each individual piece.

Each subject has been originally sculpted from clay, which allows the creation of pieces that deliver both a dynamic and organic feel. We then develop both the cases and moulds which ensure the faithful reproduction of the original clay sculpture with our special blend of marble stone castings.

The finishing touch is the skilful application of hand-painting with the end result being a statement piece and talking point for anyone’s home!

Each piece is made to order. If the item isn't in stock the eta for the delivery will be 2/3 weeks.

UK delivery is available on weekdays via our specialist courier, Fragilistics. For fragile paintings, a delivery charge of £60 will apply. For Edge Sculptures, the delivery charge is £10. Alternatively, you can collect your order for free directly from our store in Towcester. Please note that some lead times may vary for our paintings, as they are not always held in stock. These are printed to order by the publisher, and you should allow up to 4 weeks for delivery. On occasion, we can bring this forward. Our specialist courier will contact you prior to delivery to confirm a convenient date and ensure someone is available to sign for your artwork. You will also receive an email or text from Fragilistics, allowing you to amend your delivery slot or reschedule if needed.
We understand that sometimes you may need to return a piece of art, and we aim to make the process as straightforward as possible. You can return any Edge Sculptures, Limited Edition Prints, or original artwork (excluding items that are specifically commissioned) to us within seven days of receipt. Please return the items to the following address: Bloom Fine Art Unit 22, Bell Plantation, Watling Street, Towcester NN12 6GX. The cost of return shipping will be at your own expense. We recommend using the original packaging to ensure the artwork arrives safely. Any returned items must be in fully resaleable condition. Failure to include all of the original packaging will result in a partial refund, with a deduction of 25%. Once the item has been returned to us and is safely received, we will issue a full refund directly to your bank account or debit/credit card.

Other Useful Info

Every piece of art that leaves our gallery is personally inspected by us, and then expertly and carefully packed using foam edging, bubble wrap and cardboard sleeves. As Fragilistics specialise in moving art and mirror products every piece is handled with care, there are no automated machines moving items around so they are less likely to be damaged like other couriers.
