Discover the quiet power of minimalism with this hand-crafted black stone form vessel by Canadian ceramic artist Bob Acton. Smooth, weighty, and deeply tactile, this sculptural piece draws inspiration from river stones, ancient artifacts, and the meditative calm of natural forms shaped slowly over time.
The vessel’s velvety matte black surface reveals subtle hand-worked texture and organic irregularities—hallmarks of Bob’s refined wabi-sabi aesthetic. A gentle ridge at the top opens into a delicate cluster of pale crystalline accents, offering a striking contrast and a moment of light against the dark form. This restrained gesture invites curiosity, making the piece feel both mysterious and quietly alive.
Designed as a contemporary art object rather than a traditional vase, this vessel becomes a focal point on a console table, bookshelf, pedestal, or minimalist altar. Its sculptural simplicity complements Scandinavian interiors, modern organic spaces, Japandi styling, and design-forward homes seeking natural materials and meaningful handmade work.
Each piece is crafted in small batches, ensuring that no two vessels are alike. This work embodies Bob Acton’s ongoing exploration of form, texture, and stillness—ceramic art that feels both modern and timeless.
• Approx. Dimensions: 16.5×10×10 inches
