Tale Deep Bowl
Antonino Sciortino works in wire the way a draughtsman works with a pen, bending metal into forms that hover between drawing and object. The Tale Deep Bowl is among his most characteristic pieces: viewed from one angle, it reads almost flat, a silhouette that could have been sketched in a single gesture. Shift your position, and its three-dimensional structure asserts itself, each wire crossing another to cast layered shadows on whatever surface it rests upon.
The bowl is made by hand in metal wire, finished with hand-applied paint and polish. That process leaves a faint evidence of making, a quality of touch that distinguishes it from anything machined. It functions as a centerpiece on its own or can hold fruit, objects, or correspondence with equal composure.
- Designer: Antonino Sciortino for Serax
- Material: Hand-bent metal wire with hand-applied paint and polish
- Character: Sculptural form that changes with the viewer's perspective
- Use: Decorative centerpiece or functional bowl
