Oly Studio - Degas Bowl

Oly Studio’s Degas Bowl is a miniature art installation for curated surfaces and collections. Three cast brass figures support a shallow vessel above, their forms intertwining to create an organic base that reads as sculpture rather than functional object. Standing 13 inches tall with an 8.5-inch diameter, this cast brass piece develops warm patina and surface character over time—a living finish that evolves and improves with age. The Degas Bowl celebrates brass as artisanal material where hand-casting creates unique character in each production. The three figure forms suggest movement and narrative while the central vessel provides practical surface for decorative objects. Oly Studio designed this piece as functional sculpture for display on precious surfaces—library tables, bedroom nightstands, or living room consoles. The brass material carries cultural associations with artistic tradition and museum-quality craftsmanship. The intertwining figures create visual interest from every viewing angle—a true three-dimensional artwork rather than flat decorative object. The natural patina that develops over months and years transforms the surface, creating deeper warmth and personality. The Degas Bowl is collectible home design where function becomes secondary to artistic intention. This is the kind of small-scale sculpture that makes spaces memorable and curated, proving that luxury resides equally in monumental statement pieces and intimate artistic expressions.
