Profusion Of Saplings In Nickel With Glass Vase

A sculptural study in slender verticals, this John Richard work arranges a profusion of sapling forms in nickel-toned metal, their branching gestures caught at the precise moment between wild growth and studied composition. The glass vase anchors the piece with transparent weight, grounding its upward energy in something quietly grounded and domestic. At thirty-eight inches in height, it commands a console or entry table with the unhurried authority of something gathered from nature and translated into permanent form. Brass accents thread through the metalwork, lending warmth to what might otherwise read as purely cool and architectural.
