Ingenuity meets metallurgy in the memorably contrasting warm and cool casts of Antonio's silver and copper twist. Marrying these metals is a fiendishly difficult process due to their vastly different melting points. In this remarkable piece, Antonio creates an eye-popping yin-yang of radiant colors wrapping their 'hot' and 'cool' forms into dimensional space. An artistic and technological masterpiece, this number looks sensational on!
