Montague Vase, Medium

The Montague Vase arrives as a quietly authoritative presence — hand-blown art glass married to aluminum in a champagne finish that reads warm and luminous across any interior. At nineteen inches, its proportions command without overpowering, the textured enamel surface catching light with the kind of subtle complexity that rewards a second look. It is the work of John Richard, a maker whose understanding of decorative form has long informed the most considered interiors, and it belongs wherever an object is asked to do more than simply occupy space.
