A Touch of Crimson

A Trace of Crimson thrives in clinical white space. Its crisp porcelain surface and the precision of those red spiral lines are a graphic statement that gets diluted in busy interiors. Isolation on a single plinth lets the viewer slowly notice the drape, the slight asymmetry of the hem, the sculptural finial. Featuring the work of master ceramicist Runhui Xu.
