The expressions of stone sculptures are generally divided into two types: round carvings and reliefs.
The difference between embossing and round carving lies in its relative flatness and three-dimensionality. Its spatial form is the so-called compressed space between the two-dimensional virtual space of the painting and the three-dimensional physical space of the round sculpture. Compared with the round sculpture, the relief should deal with the spatial and physical relationship according to the principle of painting. As a Custom Marble Fireplace Manufacturer, let’s take a look at it in detail.
First, round carving
The so-called round sculpture refers to a three-dimensional sculpture that is uncompressed and can be viewed in multiple directions and at multiple angles. There are also a variety of techniques and forms, such as realistic and decorative, concrete and abstract, indoor and outdoor, on-shelf and large-scale city sculptures, colored and non-colored, etc.; sculpture content and theme It is also colorful, it can be a character, it can be an animal or even a still life; the material is more colorful, with stone, wood, metal, clay, textile, paper, plants, rubber, and so on. As one of the sculptural techniques of sculpture, the round sculpture has a wide range of applications and is the most common form of sculpture for ordinary people. Such as the Outdoor Marble Fountain.

Second, relief
The so-called embossing is the product of the combination of sculpture and painting. The object is processed by compression, and the three-dimensional space is represented by factors such as perspective and is only for one or two sides. The relief is generally attached to another plane, so it is used more on the building and is often seen on utensils. Due to its compact nature and small footprint, it is suitable for decoration in a variety of environments. In recent years, it has occupied an increasingly important position in the urban beautification environment. The relief is as colorful as the sculpture in its content, form, and material.
It mainly has several forms such as oracle, high relief, bas-relief, line engraving, and hollowing out.
High relief refers to a form of small compression, large undulations, close to round sculptures, and even semi-circular carvings. This embossed contrast is strong and the visual effect is outstanding;
The bas-relief has large compression and small undulations. It not only maintains a kind of architectural flatness but also has a certain sense of volume and undulation;
Line engraving is a combination of painting and sculpture. It is produced by light and shadow, with light and pen, and even some subtle ups and downs, giving people a subtle and subtle feeling;
The skeleton carving removes the bottom plate of the so-called relief, thereby creating a variable negative space and making the negative space and the contour of the positive space have a rhythm of mutual conversion. This technique used to be used for door and window railing furniture, and some can be used for two sides.
