Chelsea Chimney Sweeps ~ CAMPBELL
Coming Soon! The Chelsea Chimney Sweep! Sculpted by Campbell ~1979 ~ Ely, England

While living and working in Germany, CAMPBELL spent a day in DARMSTADT with a group of four Chimney Sweeps! CAMPBELL celebrated her luck meeting the Chimney Sweeps with a toast of Chivas Regal and they are the inspiration for this world class sculpture.

The Original sculpture pieces by Campbell were given to Stan Dalby, who used them to make a mold. The Original CASTING by Stan Dalby~ Lucky Chimney Sweeps original cast were made with ground stone and metal work shavings from the Ely Cathedral and mixed with Epoxy Resin. While Mold and casting was taking place, the original sculptures were broken.

We are using the original cast to make a new mold for an artist proof production run Watch for more info on Chimney Sweeps Coming soon...

Great Britian~"No one knows why chimney sweeps are supposed to bring luck. The tradition is thought to originate from the 18th Century, when it is rumoured that an unknown chimney sweep grabbed the reins of a panicking horse saving the rider from a fatal accident. The sweep then disappeared into the crowd before he could be thanked. The grateful rider, being none other then the king himself, afterwards declared that all chimney sweeps should be treated with honour. The 'luck' of the monarch then became the sweeps' talisman. By tradition, though, chimney sweeps have always been taken as talismans of good fortune. Customs varied according to where one lived. In some parts of the country to tap a sweep's shoulder or touch his clothing, or even walk in his shadow is very lucky. read more about Lucky Chimney Sweeps
