Lilacs and Gerber Daisy Beauty

A sculptural still life rendered in clear glass, this hand-crafted composition by John Richard rises thirty-three inches with the quiet authority of a museum piece. The transparency of the medium lends the arrangement an almost ethereal quality, as light moves through and around each formed petal and stem, dissolving the boundary between object and atmosphere. At seventeen and a half inches across, its proportion is considered — substantial enough to anchor a console or library table, yet refined enough to read as pure gesture.
