Splendiferous Spire

Splendiferous Spire is a luminous work in the JeanElton OvalVase (OV) Collection, capturing both elevation and elegance in one seamless form. Rising tall and gently tapering, the piece feels like a celebration of upward motion—its silhouette evoking a spire reaching toward light, aspiration given sculptural form.

The creamy white exterior is softened by a matte finish, drawing attention to five precisely placed portals that trace an upward arc, like notes on a staff or stars in ascension. These openings create a quiet rhythm, offering glimpses of the glistening golden interior—a stunning contrast that adds surprise and wonder to the work. The interior’s glossy finish shimmers with light, suggesting a hidden richness within the simplicity of the form.

Both elemental and refined, this piece invites reflection and admiration. Whether placed in a minimalist setting or a richly textured space, it stands as a beacon of composure and artistic confidence.

The work is fired first to approximately 1800 degrees F, after which any remaining fine alterations are made, and the surface treatment is applied by hand by the artist. A second firing to about 2100 degrees F completes the process, ensuring its durability and artistic integrity.

This piece bears the JeanElton signature on its underside and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity (COA), both of which display its catalogue reference.
