About the Item
A sculptural cast aluminum vase by Carrol Boyes, featuring a stylized human figure leaning against a tall cylindrical vessel. This iconic figurative design reflects Boyes’s signature approach to functional art, where the human form becomes an integral structural and visual element. The elongated proportions and simplified anatomy give the piece a strong modern presence, while the polished aluminum surface enhances its reflective, architectural quality.
Designed and produced by the Carrol Boyes Studio in South Africa, this vase dates to the late 1990s to early 2000s, a period when the brand gained international recognition for its sculptural metalwork. Carrol Boyes was a South African sculptor and designer best known for her cast aluminum and stainless steel objects that blur the line between decorative art and functional design. The piece is marked on the foot of the figure with a maker’s stamp consistent with Carrol Boyes studio production.
The vase is in good vintage condition, showing a few superficial surface scratches consistent with age and gentle use, typical of polished aluminum. These marks are cosmetic only and do not detract from the overall presentation. Please refer to the detailed photographs for condition.
This piece functions both as a decorative sculptural object and as a vase, making it well suited for modern, contemporary, and sculptural interiors.
