Hammered Brass Octagonal Planter w/ Tassel, 1960's

A faceted brass planter with a bold, faceted urn silhouette, its surface finished in a hand-hammered texture and a rich, aged patina. A twisted brass cord is looped decoratively around the squared neck, a detail that nods to traditional Asian metalworking traditions. Substantial and sculptural, it makes a striking home for a large plant or dried arrangement.
