Both a functional piece of furniture and an intriguing sculpture, this ceramic pedestal is a statement-making centerpiece in any room. Mixing terracotta and ebony hues, the pedestal is carefully constructed of ropes, slabs, and smears of clay. The mix of textures is extraordinary, from rope-like appliques that structure the bas to highly detailed, embossed images of beetles and flowers that decorate the top. Part of a body of work that’s been called “unique and strange,” the table was created by Wisconsin artist Michael Gross, whose figurines, vessels, and furniture pieces have been widely collected and featured in museum exhibitions around the country.

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
