Auric TideSphere 1-1919 x 19 x 19 cmStone River-worn stones, once shaped by water and time, are gathered and veiled in gold — as though a tide of molten sunlight had flowed over th em and come to rest.Their rounded forms recall pebbles smoothed on distant shores, now transformed into a luminous, unified whole.Auric Tide speaks of nature’s slow shaping hand meeting the human impulse to honour it in precious metal. Stone Map Guide: 🪨 River Pebbles – once plain stones of earth-tones, rounded smooth by the movement of water. 🪨 Basalt & Flint Pebbles – originally dark and weighty, now glowing with a warm golden lustre. 🪨 Quartzite & Pale Agates – naturally soft-toned stones beneath the finish, adding subtle contours to the sculpture’s surface. ✨ Gold Finish – a brushed and burnished metallic layer that unites every stone in a single golden tide, transforming the ordinary into the radiant. © Stephanie Fuller (Burns) Show more
