This sculpture is a wonderful gift or commemoration for a graduation and its rare that you get the opportunity to own a sculpture hand made by such a well known artist.
Each piece, from the famous Molly Malone statue in Dublin down to smaller bas relief, is individually hand made. When happy with the modelling, a mould is made and production begins in bronze plate (cold cast bronze) or smelt bronze (for gallery work/one off public sculpture and private commissions).

Molly Malone Bronze Sculpture – Jeanne Rynhart – Medium
Molly Malone” (also known as “Cockles and Mussels” or “In Dublin’s Fair City“) is a popular song set in Dublin, Ireland, which has become the unofficial anthem of Dublin.
The Molly Malone statue in Grafton Street was unveiled by then Lord Mayor of Dublin, AldermanBen Briscoe, during the 1988 Dublin Millennium celebrations, when 13 June was declared to be Molly Malone Day. The statue was presented to the city by Jury’s Hotel Group to mark the Millennium.
Molly Malone Statue in Dublin
On 18 July 2014, the statue was relocated to Suffolk Street, in front of the Tourist Information Office, to make way for Luas track-laying work to be completed at the old location. Due to the increase in tourist foot traffic, and a common penchant for being “handsy”, the statue has been groped often enough that the bronze hue has begun to wear off on the bosom.
What we love about all of this is that the smaller limited edition bronze sculptures that are replicas of Molly are also made by Jeanne as well. This makes them uniquely authentic.
The chorus of Mollys song sum this sculpture best
Like a bird I could sing,In the month of the spring,But it’s now no such thing,I’m quite bothered and dead,Och I’ll roar and I’ll groan,My sweet Molly Malone,Till I’m bone of your bone,And asleep in your bed
