About Sri LankaBuy ancient Replicas , Study Artworks
Creating replicas of the beloved ancient landmarks , statues and art are in cement, fiberglass, terra-cotta, brass, bronze, ceramic, wood and stone to match its original is the responsibility of a selected group artists at the Antiquities Replica Centre at Bataleeya, Pasyala.
May it be a row of elephants, a scene of deva-aradhana from the Polonnaruwa era, or a Buddha statue from the Anuradhapura era; the artists at the Antiquities Replica Centre fondly known as ARC have produced a replica closest to the original thus preventing looting and destruction of artifacts by mercenaries and tourists looking for a souvenir. Feats of this caliber certainly demands special training and the training is provided at the academic Unit of the ARC.
