I like this. Are the two components joined together or separate? Good lines and nice finish.
 
Love the curves - it looks so old!

Thanks. I get the aged, textured look by mixing one third by volume of sand into the cement, before adding water, and then scraping the surface to expose tiny craters after it has hardened. I then rub burnt umber and raw umber oil paint all over and then wipe it off again. I do a similar trick with ceramics, except with clay one rubs oxides onto the surface of the clay before the final kiln firing.
