About this print
A scale model of the Gherkin, the distinctive cylindrical glass skyscraper in the City of London. The model is produced in three sections that are assembled with adhesive after printing, and no support material is required. It suits architecture enthusiasts, London souvenir collections and educational displays. PLA provides the stiffness and surface quality that the curved, tapering profile requires.
