The anemone is a flower that rewards close looking — its petals broad and slightly irregular, radiating outward from a darkly textured center with a looseness that feels caught mid-bloom rather than posed. This small wall plaque captures that quality with remarkable fidelity.
Worked entirely in copper through repoussé, the anemone blossom is pushed into full three-dimensional relief from within the metal itself, its petals rising and curving with genuine sculptural presence. The background surrounding the flower has been given a fine dimpled texture that draws the eye inward toward the bloom, while a rich patina deepens the recessed areas and gives the composition warmth, shadow, and depth. The outer ring of the plaque is left in its natural copper state — warm, luminous, and smooth — framing the darkened interior like a halo around the flower.
A copper tube on the reverse allows the piece to hang flush against a wall. It sits equally well as a tabletop object, resting at a slight angle that shows the repoussé work to full advantage.
