Carved and made entirely by the artist.

The Story

The dark branching lines inside this stone look drawn by hand; they are not. Grzegorz cut the body slim and tall so the natural drawing runs uninterrupted from base to neck, like ink on a pale page.

About This Work

A slim, tall body carved from dendritic agate so the natural branching inclusions run uninterrupted from base to neck. The silver collar is kept narrow to avoid cutting across the stone's markings.

Entirely carved, fabricated and finished by Grzegorz Kiernicki. Each vessel is a unique work created by the artist by hand.
