The Workroom Collection is a very special series of classic bust forms encompassing female, male and child body shapes and sizes. Originally designed for use by tailors and dressmakers, over the years this established archive has also become a mainstay of retail display teams, museums and exhibition designers.
Designed to strict workroom specifications, the bodies are handmade in London, England using the artisan manufacturing technique of papier-mache. Padded and upholstered in simple calico, these forms are supplied with a classic workroom turning mechanism, or can be specified with a range of alternative neck-caps and bases for display use.
N.B. Please note that there can be a slight variation in measurements as each figure is hand-made from natural materials.
