About the Item

A substantial and visually arresting wall-mounted sculpture by Lewis Trimble, crafted in stoneware using the nerikomi technique—a method in which layers of colored clay are stacked, sliced, and reassembled to create intricate internal patterning. Unlike surface decoration, these embedded patterns are integral to the form, offering depth, complexity, and a sense of geological permanence. Un-glazed and raw in finish, the surface has a tactile, sandstone-like quality that enhances the natural tones of the clay and underscores the hand-built nature of the work. The absence of glaze highlights subtle variations in texture and form, lending the piece both visual weight and quiet presence. Wall-mounted sculpture offers designers a unique opportunity to integrate fine art into architecture—merging dimensionality, materiality, and narrative into the built environment. Trimble’s work has been placed in interiors and collections around the world—from private residences and curated modernist homes to commercial and institutional spaces—where his pieces serve as sculptural anchors and conversation points. Rooted in Japanese ceramic traditions but interpreted through the lens of organic modernism, Trimble’s approach elevates process and material as central to the aesthetic. His compositions speak to both the legacy of studio craft and contemporary design, bridging the two through form, technique, and a reverence for natural beauty. Equipped with a precision-machined aluminum French cleat system, this piece is engineered for safe and secure wall installation across three studs. Rare in both scale and execution, it functions as a sculptural focal point—quietly commanding yet deeply connected to material and place.
