Description

The front of Silk Spangle Gall features finely detailed pewter galls, positioned on a sculpted cast concrete leaf detail, beautifully depicting the intricate lower side of an oak leaf.

Turn the sculpture around, and you’ll discover the repousse work on the pewter sheet at the back, showing the upper side of the leaf. This dual-sided design ensures an intriguing view of the piece from any angle no matter how you display it.

Ideal for adding a touch of elegance to your home, office, or public space.
