Bring a landmark London building home – in plaster

Chisel & Mouse plaster models
Plaster models of landmark London buildings by Chisel & Mouse

If you've ever dreamed of owning a plaster model of an iconic London building – and let's face it, who hasn't? – then the rather wonderful Chisel & Mouse might be for you.

As the name suggests, the newly launched company – founded by two brothers, Robert and Gavin Paisley – blends traditional sculpting skills and CAD drawings. The pair owned a software company for 10 years before deciding to step out of their comfort zone and explore their love of architecture.

Buildings rendered in plaster include Battersea Power Station's northern chimneys, Broadcasting House and the old Arsenal stadium's east stand, among others. All are around 25cm high, cost from £59, and are handcrafted in Sussex from British plaster.
