We were honored to make a freestanding glass case for Purdue University Galleries Galleries
The case housed the sculpture La Petite Danseuse de Quatorze Ans by Edgar Degas. The university received a generous donation of works by Degas. The ballerina sculpture is one of 29 that were cast by Degas himself. The archival case features gasket sealed UV filtering glass to protect this important work of art.
