This magnificent sculpture derives its name from the Ancient Greek word for orchid: sandal of the world. This work of art is crafted entirely by hand and is made of stainless steel, bronze, and copper to create a multicolored effect. The refined harmony of petals creates an oblong silhouette exquisitely rendered by Alessandro Rametta.

The finish is in micro-crystal wax.
