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 from the artists.

Overpriced but effective.
Color: Cream
I happened to get lucky and get a warehouse deal at an additional 30% discount. Even at $25, it feels a little overpriced. But it was easy to assemble and serves its purpose. If you line the Velcro up exactly, the panels sag, if you stretch past even, but where it still grips, they look pretty ok. It is very light and does fold very compact for easy storage.

Great price for a great product
Color: Coal Black
Excellent quality and great price to boot. Easy to assemble and folds up easily to be stored. We are using it as a privacy screen when we have company that needs to sleep on the couch and also to block off a hallway leading to a guest suite. It looks great and is as described in the ad

No.
Color: Coal Black, Color: Coal Black
This was horribly made and a nightmare to put together. You have to basically bend the bars to get the coverings attached. The sizes don't match. The stickers that label the parts are impossible to remove and if you do get them off theres a lot of residue left behind. On top of that once it was put together I noticed theres a big dirty foot print on it which is definitely not mine.

You have to add weight to it
Color: Coal Black
It does its job and it was easy to put together but it's a little on the flimsy side and it will easily be knocked down. So you're going to have to figure out a way to make the legs heavier? I used cinder blocks, single cinder blocks and it works just fine. Just know that it will knock over super easy

The snap to put them together.
