Memorie Celesti Oricalchum Sculpture by Alessandro Rametta

This semi-spherical sculpture fashioned of brass belongs to the Memorie Celesti Collection, focused on the synthesis of tradition and innovation, enhancing the matter through contemporary artistic sensibility. The smooth and polished look of the piece is interrupted by a textured, rippled design along one half that Rametta defines as "philosopher's beard". It is one out of a limited series of nine signed and numbered pieces of extraordinary value.
