About Zephyr Minor 7/50

Smooth-surfaced, black granite flecked almost imperceptibly with copper and white has been engineered into an elegant ribbon in tangible contrast to its weight. The work is aptly titled Zephyr, a word derived from the ancient Greek zephuros, the name for the God of the West Wind. As such, this sculpture echoes the graceful, bent form into which some northern Canadian pines will grow if exposed to the persistent west wind.

This sculpture is numbered in an edition of 50 and can be purchased on a commission basis. Please allow 8 - 12 weeks before shipping.

Zephyr Minor is presented on a fixed base. If interested in replacing the base, there are available options in the following custom finishes for an additional cost:
½” thick painted black steel
1” thick brushed aluminum
3” thick engineered stone
For example a 12" H × 12" W x 12" D or 12" H × 14" W x 14" D footprint is approx. $2,000 for the first 12" in height, dependant on materials, plus $1,000 for each additional 12" inches.

The sculpture connects via a steel pin, allowing the sculpture to be turned independently of the base.
