Description
Presenting a brass vase by James Johnston, a refined example of American studio metalwork by an artist whose practice reflects the enduring tradition of hand-crafted metal objects that bridges fine art and functional design. Johnston's brass vessels are admired for the warmth and luminosity of the material itself, as well as the considered formal sensibility and skilled fabrication that distinguish studio metalwork of genuine artistic ambition from purely decorative manufacture.
A compelling piece for collectors of American studio craft, decorative metalwork enthusiasts, or those drawn to the rich, warm presence of hand-worked brass — this vase represents the work of a maker whose mastery of material and form places it comfortably within the broader canon of American studio objects.
