Description: | The simplicity of this piece lies in its construction from a single sheet of silver using a 'cut and fold' technique. The way in which the shapes of metal, forming the feet of this piece have been cut and bent back on themselves clearly demonstrates this. The gold leaf echoes the negative shape formed in between the four walls. Removable, the leaf is bent back at its stalk to form a clip by which it can be attached to the bowl at any point or displayed aside. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East craft metal makers contemporary craft | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
