Foliose Coral

A sculptural study in organic form, the Foliose Coral by John Richard captures the branching, layered architecture of reef life rendered in stone and concrete — materials whose inherent weight and texture lend the piece an elemental gravity. Each example is finished by hand, ensuring that no two works share precisely the same play of color and surface, making this a quietly singular object within any considered interior. At seven and a half inches in height and spanning twenty-one inches across, it commands a console or low shelf with the unhurried confidence of something retrieved from nature rather than designed.
