About the Item
"Lucky 8", a gorgeous contemporary sculpture created by Scott P. Gentry, was inspired by numerology and Chinese culture. The number 8 is a symbol of balance with its symmetrical shape. For every blessing it receives, it puts another back out into the universe. In Chinese culture, the number 8 is considered the luckiest of all and Scott chose to add the gold leaf as a symbol of both beauty and prestige.
"Lucky 8" was carved from a solid piece of Atlantic black marble and embellished with over 90 perfectly placed divots that have been covered with 22K gold leaf to enhance the silhouette of the sculpture. It has been pinned atop a black granite base using an Italian, brass turning pin that allows for the sculpture to be turned 360 degrees on her base to appreciate the beauty of the sculpture from all angles.

Scott Gentry is a stone and bronze sculptor currently based in the United States. At an early age, Scott discovered stone sculpting and soon traveled to Pietrasanta, Italy, to learn more about this ancient form of art. While in Italy, he was able to study in the same setting as many renowned sculptors had before him and experience La Dolce Vita. As he learned about the varieties of stone available and how each would carve differently from the next, a passion for the art quickly ensued and has since led to a lifelong passion for creating sculpture. Scott's continuous search for knowledge has also taken him to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and Ventura, California. It was in San Miguel de Allende, Scott discovered the process of bronze wax casting and expanded into creating bronze sculptures. He returns to Pietrasanta as often as possible to work in the studio and gain inspiration from the Italian countryside, the marble laden Apuan Alps and nearby Ligurian Sea. Scott’s clientele has grown over the years to include celebrities in Los Angeles/Beverly Hills, California, as well as private collectors throughout the United States and Australia. He continues to create gorgeous works of art in stone and bronze and hopes to share his passion and creativity across the globe.
