"Ascension" is a contemporary sculpture created by American sculptor Scott Gentry, meticulously carved from Persian onyx. This elegant piece embodies an abstract form reminiscent of a flame or teardrop, with a distinctive circular hollow at its center. The Persian onyx, renowned for its stunning natural patterns, showcases a harmonious blend of earthy tones, including rich browns, creamy whites, and subtle hints of golden hues. These colors flow together in intricate, organic swirls, highlighted by the stone's polished finish. Mounted on a sleek black granite base, "Ascension" captures both a sense of movement and tranquility, making it a captivating centerpiece in any modern setting.
