Pair of Italian Marble Spheres on Nickel Bases, 1970s
-
Description
A sculptural pair of Italian marble spheres from the 1970s, each resting elegantly on a simple cylindrical nickel-plated base. The spheres are carved from contrasting cuts of natural stone—one with warm, honeyed veining and the other with dramatic linear striations in earthy tones. Their polished surfaces reveal a geological richness, highlighting the organic movement of the material. Originally decorative objects, they can function beautifully as bookends, paperweights, or simply as poetic accents on a shelf or console.
