Reeds and Cream Bowl

Availability: 4-6 weeks

A sculptural vessel of brass and metal, the Reeds and Cream Bowl by John Richard commands a surface with the quiet authority of a well-placed object that knows precisely what it is. Its hand-painted finish renders a composition of reeds against a creamy ground — painterly, considered, and unhurried — the kind of decorative work that rewards a second look. At nearly a foot in height and spanning fifteen and a half inches across, its proportions occupy space with generous confidence, neither receding nor overpowering. It belongs equally to a library console, an entry hall table, or the center of a well-dressed dining room.
