Description

A radial color wheel divides a cream ground into precisely ordered bands that transition from deep navy and burgundy through forest green and gold to burnt orange and red, each hue flowing outward from a blank center circle like spokes of light. The composition follows the systematic classification method of 19th-century physics, rendered with fine linear precision and a restrained, scientific aesthetic that transforms color theory into visual harmony. Crafted from bamboo and made to order, with a drilled hole so it hangs on the wall as easily as it works on the counter. A kitchen essential carrying an independent artist's work, not a blank block from the big-box aisle.
