This bowl shares its scale and open blossom silhouette with the other medium piece in DE-COR's marble lotus line, but the carving reads differently in hand: each petal here is worked with multiple fine parallel lines rather than a single central rib, giving the surface a feathered, almost pleated texture that catches light in narrow bands rather than one broad shadow line per petal. The interior retains a lighter, cooler tone against the warmer exterior wax finish, a contrast visible where the petals curl outward at the rim.

Carved from a single piece of marble with the cavity hollowed by hand, the piece carries the same distressed light wax finish as its companion pieces, muting the stone's natural white into a warmer, weathered tone. Natural veining and minor inclusions remain visible throughout, characteristic of hand-carved marble.

At 9" in diameter and height with a 5" opening, this pairs naturally with the other medium bowl in the collection — the ribbed and smooth versions read as a matched set when grouped together, each catching light slightly differently.
