Description
The Celestial Collection Flare No. 7
No. 7 of 7 bowls
A single Flare Bowl. The second release in the Celestial Collection, designed and created by Adrian Smith; Blacksmith at Coach House Forge.
Inspired by the nature and movement of particles; where the centre of the bowl is black and this energy is dispersed to the outer edge, one can view the movement toward or away from the centre. Adrian took the sheet metal, heating it multiple times to a very high heat, and then used hide hammer and peen hammers to create different textures, finishes, and tones within the same piece. The results are a tactile bowl with a deep, darkened and smooth centre with a contrasting dotted rim that flares out confidently surrounding the bowl.
This listing is for 1 of 7 pieces in this release, which can be used as an objet d’art or a functional statement piece, in which you can display items, or use as a bowl for keeping your everyday treasures safe.
Notable points about No 7 bowl
- 12” Hendecagon. The largest iron flare bowl of this collection, with a substantial matte black bowl centre accented by the radiating flare. There’s nothing subtle about this large vessel that begs to be handled and picked up by the largest flare rims in this Celestial series. The music of the vessel animates the piece and resonates at multiple levels with A, Bb, and C notes, undoubtedly the richest tone of the collection. This is a sumptuous and delightful object that with its gentle flow of textures keeps the eyes wandering all over it.
