Baize · Beside the Spring

Small details open a wider view; stillness carries its own voice. Baize · Beside the Spring brings together bright natural white copper, a thin round rim and fine shallow relief. Baize pauses on a spring bank at upper left and lowers its head slightly to the right. Fine water lines descend along the right rim and end in short ripples below. Silver-white fields and soft light-gray shadows reveal the ornament’s depth. The reverse retains one fine spring line at upper right and two short ripples at lower left. A central tapered slot and two auxiliary apertures remain open in the unmounted guard. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and plain silver-white fittings complete the pairing.
