Artists Statement:

When Gillie and Marc visited Rome together they become obsessed with watching the vespa riders, known locally as the Motorini. Rome has the highest number of registered scooters of any city in the world. In the Eternal City, scooters are used by people in all walks of life, from teenagers sporting the latest fashion garments to business people wearing suits. The artists joined in the fun too and loved zipping around Rome on their rented vespa. They have a soft spot for vespas because it’s an excuse to hold on tightly to one another and when they returned to Sydney they bought a vespa for themselves. The Motorini was also inspiration behind Gillie and Marc’s life-sized sculpture 'It Takes Two'. Since the artwork’s installation in Sydney’s trendy inner-city suburb, Paddington, it has been photographed countless times with visitors even dressing up Dogman and Rabbitwoman. This collection 'They were the authentic vespa riders of Rome' is modelled on 'It Takes Two'. The artists have added a colourful patina to make this 9 in-tall sculpture really pop

For every purchase of a bronze sculpture, you will receive a Certificate of Authenticity ~ titled, signed, dated and editioned by the artists.

Not the most durable, but it is a quality toy
I bought this as a gift for my friend's mini dachund and I knew she would love it because of the long legs and how soft it is. She loved it alright. So much that she ripped the ear off in the first 10 minutes of having it. It's not durable, given a year old mini weenie can rip it, but it is a good toy for the dogs that don't choose death for every toy they have.

very cute - not for most dogs
Very cute but not made for dogs who carry their toys. I purchase toys such as this every few months because my dog loves to snuggle and play with them. She has many of them and delights in carrying her new ones with her. This is the first stuffed toy that's only lasted a few days. She does not tear into her toys nor is she hard on them. Most of her toys are still intact. The one's that are worn are at least two years old so this was surprising. This toy would be great for a dog that lays still with it, won't carry it and just cuddles. It wouldn't last two seconds with a dog that is hard on their toys.
