(Q) What are the replicas made of?
(A) The replicas are made of #1 casting plaster (tinted with black pigment), hand-painted, and strengthened by immersion in an acetone/super glue solution and sealed with polyurethane.
(Q) How much do they weigh?
(A) At about 1/5th actual weight, they are easily handled and affordably shipped.
(Q) Will they break if they are dropped?
(A) Elementary schoolteachers and heavyweight jugglers have asked this question. Yes, if dropped on a hard surface, these replicas might break. But they won't kill everyone in the room.
