Marble hemisphere bowl designed by architect John Pawson

About the Item

This marble bowl designed by British architect John Pawson is created as a seamless hemisphere for When Objects Work. The dynamic base allows the bowl to rest on a curve creating the illusion of imbalance. Its minimalist design is an eye-catcher for any interior that examines the interaction between material and shape. The bowl functions as either a stand-alone object or as an actual bowl such as a fruit bowl. It is available in both black and white marble. When Objects Work was founded on the principle that everyday domestic objects may be both useful and beautiful and this bowl designed by John Pawson was the first of a series of commissions exploring the theme of decorative art as functional equipment for the home.

  • Organic Modern Cast Bronze Bowl Sculpture with Fish Design by John Forsythe
    Located in Topeka, KS
    Fabulous organic modern bronze fishbowl sculpture by John Forsythe comprised of cast bronze with golden bronze and green patination. Gorgeous vintage condition with no outstanding flaws that we have found. Please see photos. Circa 1993. No human being, however great, or powerful, was ever so free as a fish – John Ruskin, Picture Quotes. Just look at this magnificent cast bronze bowl sculpture with fish design created by John Forsythe. A decorative bowl comprised of a cast bronze water whirlpool with swimming fish caught in the spinning currents, their half bodies and patinated green tails distending from the swirling water and a fish tail protruding from the exterior base of the bowl. You feel the struggle of trying to stay above water and complete your journey. Surrounded by a cast bronze rim trimmed with shiny green bubbles or fish eggs as to represent salmon and their spawning. Salmon lay an enormous number of eggs because they face a lot of adversity on their journey to becoming an adult, and while we aren’t sure these fish are in fact salmon, it certainly speaks to the realities of the course of life. Overcoming hardships and struggles and new beginnings. This sculpture is unique and one of only fifty created by John Forsythe, so it is sure to be a sought-after piece for collectors. In the style of organic modern or fantasy, this piece would be gorgeous displayed on your dining table, display cabinet or buffet in the family room, or on the coffee table in the living room. John Forsythe knew at an early age that he wanted to be an artist. He graduated from Emporia State University in 1976 with his BFA and started working with metals. He was employed as manager of Oxbow Foundry and befriended Eldon Tefft, Founder of the International Sculptor Guild and Chair of the University of Kansas Art...
