Abstract Ceramic Flame Sculpture

This is a large-scale abstract ceramic sculpture featuring a dynamic, flame-like or 'S' curved silhouette. The piece is characterized by its sinuous, biomorphic lines that taper into a sharp point at the top and curl into a smaller volute at the base. The construction appears to be high-gloss glazed ceramic or porcelain, possibly cast or hand-built. The color palette is complex, utilizing a drip or variegated glaze technique that blends deep emerald greens, burnished bronze-copper tones, and dark sienna. This metallic luster effect creates a sense of movement and depth as it catches the light. The sculpture stands on a self-integrated base, suggesting a late 20th-century aesthetic, likely influenced by Mid-Century Modern or Post-Modern organic design. The surface finish is highly reflective with no immediately visible cracks or significant chips, suggesting good overall condition. There are subtle textural variations in the glaze, which are hallmarks of kiln-fired artistry. The craftsmanship exhibits high-quality smoothing and an even application of the decorative metallic glaze, typical of decorative studio pottery or high-end interior decor pieces from the 1970s to 1990s.
