Anello di Perle Sculpture on Iron Base, Large

A constellation of pearlized forms arranged in a luminous ring, the Anello di Perle sculpture by John Richard achieves something rare — stillness with movement, restraint with opulence. The champagne and enamel finish catches light with the quiet authority of well-chosen jewelry, while the iron base anchors the composition with an architectural solidity that grounds its ethereal presence. At twenty and a half inches tall, it commands a console or library shelf without demanding it, the kind of object that rewards a second look and then a third.
