Aluminum Cast Abstract Sculpture "Introspect" on Marble Base by James C. Myford
Located in San Diego, CA
Stunning large aluminum cast abstract sculpture "Introspect" on black marble base by noted sculptor James C. Myford, circa 1983. #2520 The piece is in very good vintage condition with no chips or cracks and measures 11" W x 7" D x 29.5" H; the marble base measures 7" W x 7" D x 1" H. The sculpture is signed and dated by the artist on the base.   James C. Myford (1940 - 2014) Myford's interest in aluminium began in 1970 when he attended a workshop sponsored by Alcoa at the art centre in Pittsburgh. "I fell in love with aluminium as a material." Myford then began creating contemporary aluminium sculptures by using the casting process. He had the first one-man art exhibit of his works in Pittsburgh in 1972. The eighteen pieces of work produced for the show ranged from twelve inches to four feet. Several of these pieces were purchased by Pittsburgh art...

Substantial Polished Petrified Fossilized Wood 5.5" Decorative Sphere / Orb
Located in Red Lion, PA
Substantial Polished Petrified Fossilized Wood Decorative Sphere / Orb, 5.5" Diameter, 6.5 lbs This impressive petrified wood decorative sphere measures approximately 5.5 inches in diameter (16.5 inches in circumference) and weighs a substantial 6.4 pounds. Expertly polished to a luminous sheen, the orb showcases extraordinary natural variations in color from rich chocolate browns to warm amber honey, creamy beige, soft greys, and golden tan. The surface reveals mesmerizing natural patterns and textures, including swirling grain, delicate veining, subtle craquelure, and striking abstract formations that can only be found in fossilized wood. While polished smooth, the orb retains slight tactile variations, celebrating the organic character of this ancient material. Petrified wood is formed over millions of years as mineral-rich water permeates buried wood, gradually replacing its cellular structure with quartz, chalcedony, or other minerals while preserving the original growth rings and textures. Each specimen is a unique work of nature, blending the warmth of wood with the permanence of stone. Collectors value petrified wood not only for its geological significance but also for its aesthetic qualities each piece is entirely unique, a frozen moment in natural history. The sphere shape, long associated with harmony, wholeness, and timeless design, enhances the inherent beauty of the material. Unlike raw or slab-cut petrified wood, a polished orb emphasizes the depth of color, movement, and mineralization from every angle. Substantial in weight and presence, this piece makes a striking accent for a coffee table, bookshelf, or desktop. It can serve as a meditative object, a sculptural statement, or a thoughtful addition to a collection of natural history and decorative arts. Highly collectible and increasingly sought-after, large polished petrified wood spheres such as this bring a sense of luxury, grounding energy, and conversation-worthy beauty into any space. Condition: Excellent overall with natural surface variations inherent to petrified wood. Please see photos for details. This is a timeless decorative object that bridges nature, design, and geology, an ideal addition for collectors of minerals, fossilized wood, decorative spheres, and natural history objects.

"Pompeii" Memory Jug by Michael Thompson
Located in Chicago, IL
Based in Chicago, IL, contemporary artist Michael Thompson creates unique kites, collages and mixed media works assembled from material fragments of past and present collected in his travels. In his ongoing series of memory jugs, Thompson adorns stoneware vessels with a kaleidoscope of ceramic shards, found objects, and pocket-sized trinkets he collected over the course of his life. Also known as forget-me-not jugs or spirit jars, memory jugs are African American folk art objects that honor a loved one who has recently passed. Small tokens and mementos of the deceased are gathered and affixed to the exterior of a jug or vase, an abundance of memories that celebrates a life lived to the fullest. Michael Thompson applies this tradition to his own practice, creating tactile assemblages of this and that. Formed in the manner of collage, each jug honors the lost memories of generations past and his own memories of personally discovering each item. With varied sources for materials including Kyoto, Turkey, and Mexico, a great number of the found shards are 18th and 19th century ceramics...

Find Abstract Sculptures and Other Fine Sculptures for Your Home

Abstract sculpture has evolved over time with artists making a variety of striking statements in stone, bronze, ceramic and other materials. In the collection of abstract sculptures on 1stDibs, you are sure to find a piece that is perfect for your space.

When exploring how to arrange furniture and decor, consider color, texture and what kind of energy it should evoke. Abstract sculpture can elevate any home through its many decorative possibilities.

Auguste Rodin is often called the father of modern sculpture for his pioneering naturalistic forms and figures that vividly express emotion. His work in the 19th and early 20th centuries broke with artistic conventions and inspired modernism, leading to a new period of avant-garde abstraction.

Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque were among the first artists to push abstract sculpture into the mainstream. They helped define the Cubism movement, which focused on deconstructing the world abstractly. Other 20th-century artistic movements, including Italian Futurism, Dadaism, Neo-Dadaism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism and Minimalism, all contributed to the advancement of abstract sculpture. Italian Futurism, for example, celebrated movement, dynamics and technology in abstract sculpture. These movements continue to inform abstract sculpture today.

With abstract art — sculpture, painting or a grouping of prints — a work can complement a living room, dining room or other space, or it can act as a bold focal point.

Browse a range of modern abstract sculptures, postmodern abstract sculptures and other sculptures on 1stDibs.
