Deep Brown Carved Bulbous Marble Vase

This carved marble vase takes a more architectural approach: a bulbous, faceted body rises to a carved collar of pointed lotus petals just below the shoulder, then narrows into a flared, ringed neck. The petal collar is hand-carved in low relief rather than cut through, giving the piece a sculptural band rather than the deep individual petals seen on the open bowls in this line. The body is faceted into broad vertical panels below the petal collar, catching light differently than the smooth curves of the flower-form pieces. This example carries a deep brown wax finish, notably darker than the lighter wax used on the other sizes in the collection — worth noting if you're pairing pieces, since the tonal difference is deliberate rather than a finish inconsistency. At 9" in diameter and height with a narrower 4" opening, this reads more as a vase for a single dramatic stem or dried branch than a wide floral vessel — the collared neck holds stems upright rather than letting them spill outward the way the open bowls do. *Era: Contemporary *Material: Hand-Carved Marble *Size: 9"(DM) x 9"(H); Opening 4"(DM) *Color: Marble with Deep Brown Wax Finish *Condition: Very good; natural stone…
