The “Sphere: Crossband with Studs” by Veit Korn is a masterful fusion of geometry, symbolism, and fine craftsmanship, rendered in the natural elegance of Anrochter limestone. This unique piece, part of the “Ritual Sphere” series, features an intricately designed crossband, accentuated with oiled finishes and gilded studs that add a subtle yet striking element of sophistication. The upper closure, crafted from hand-forged steel and partially gilded, bridges the organic and the industrial, creating a harmonious interplay of materials. The sphere’s chiseled and polished surface treatments emphasize its tactile quality while evoking themes of timeless ritual and ceremonial significance. The crossband design suggests notions of balance, unity, and connectivity, while the gilded details hint at sacred or regal associations. Accompanied by a signed certificate, this one-of-a-kind sculpture invites contemplation and admiration, offering a seamless blend of historical reverence, modern artistry, and enduring beauty.
