Hermaphroditus Statue |Roman Copy|

🔹 This unique 3D printed copy statue represents Hermaphroditus, one of the fascinating figures in Greek mythology. Hermaphroditus was the child of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and Hermes, the messenger god. According to Ovid, he was born a remarkably handsome boy. The nymph Salmacis fell in love with him and prayed to be united with him forever. In response to her prayer, a god merged their forms into one, transforming him into a hermaphrodite. Their name is derived from their parents' names, Hermes and Aphrodite. Hermaphroditus is also considered one of the Erotes, and sometimes referred to as Atlantiades, being a great-grandchild of Atlas through Hermes' mother, Maia.

🌟Post-3D Printing Process🌟

To ensure a smooth and flawless finish, each piece undergoes several steps after 3D printing. Initially, we carefully sand the object to eliminate any rough surfaces. Next, we apply a primer to prepare it for painting. The piece is then hand-painted with great attention to detail, and finally, we varnish it to ensure the paint remains vibrant and long-lasting.

📌Our products are lightweight due to the 3D printing process. The weight may be surprising when held, as it cannot be accurately judged by appearance alone. Generally, they weigh under 500 grams. Despite their lightness, our 3D printed items are more durable and resistant to impact. If you prefer a heavier product, we can add weight upon request, though this will incur an additional shipping fee. Please contact us for more details.
