Pouring Vessel - Bronze

Simplicity

• Introduction

  I am a Bronze Pouring Vessel. Pick me up and feel my weight. Now, pour me out onto your plate!

   

• Curator's Notes 

   

  This pouring vessel is truly something special. Like a droplet of water suspended in flight, the spherical body tapers gently to a spout with a poetry that makes my heart ache. Its beauty doesn’t hinder its function – the base fits wonderfully in the hand with a satisfying weight, and the delicate spout allows you to pour liquids with intention, from soy sauce to salad dressing. But my favorite thing about this vessel is the way it moves. Tip it over lightly with your hand, and the piece comes to life in a pendulous dance, its spout tracing spirals in the air as it rocks and sways, eventually settling back into its center of balance. Mesmerizing!
