Brass with Oxidation/Green Verdigris details

2 1/2" Inner Dia

Branches of woody seed capsules gathered from the Callistemon (also knows as Bottlebrush) were the inspiration for this piece. The shrubs grow all over my neighborhood and the bright fuchsia stamens/flowers are filled with pollen so the hummingbirds love them.

The Dispersion collection distills nature’s diversity of textures, forms and imperfections. Using ancient and modern techniques, the designs are carved in wax and then cast.
