High quality, Shell Shaped hand blown Human or Doll eyes with veining

Description

Brown Hand painted hollow, shell shaped Doll or Mannequin eyes that can also be used in fine figurine work. This eye is supplied with veining on the white sclera. This is the closest to a prosthetic eye available. Ideal for close up camera work, display models, film and tv work.

For many years, this hollow blown series of figurine eyes have been the premium, a benchmark for detail, the accuracy of the shape with a wide variety of colours. Due to elaborate process adopted for their manufacture, the complex iris pattern and the veining are based on the human eye. All human eyes are not usable for medical purposes (prosthetic)

This is a delicate eye and can be used where mechanical or puppet movement is required. This eye lends itself to being fixed in a solid position or having armatures fixed to the back of the eye to allow for movement.    

These eyes can be back filled with a suitable none exotherming resin (This type of resin does not generate heat when it sets). To help with the strength and durability of the eye. It also helps if an armature needs to be installed in the back of the eye.

This eye is supplied with veining. These eyes are coloured by hand and are sold in pairs.

Available without veining- please see code GECOC 

The diameter of the eye is measured at the widest point and is accurate to +/- 2% as a general estimate.

  Fixing 
  
  Eyes of all kinds can be fitted in many different ways. If the eye is to be fitted into a wood substrate (stick making, carving or similar) then a glue such as a two-part epoxy glue can be used. If something with a bit more body is required clay can be used or an epoxy putty can be used such as Apoxie Sculpt. 
  
  Apoxie Sculpt is a superb medium for all types of bedding and bonding. Its sculptural capabilities are second to none. We have many tutorials available- a product that should not be overlooked.
