This artwork is a mesmerizing tangle of tawny loops and whorls, each ring encasing a core of deep, enigmatic black. The natural, wood-like texture of the loops brings an organic feel to the structured chaos. Bursts of bold crimson slice through the neutral dance, their glossy finish and striking color drawing the eye with confidence. The rhythmic flow of the loops creates a dynamic sense of movement, as if the shapes are in constant, fluid motion across the canvas. This piece captures a lively interplay between form and color, perfect for invigorating a space with movement and a touch of natural intrigue.

The majority of Vera's original artwork is unsigned and undated. This absence of her signature is largely due to her original artwork being used in textile and houseware designs, where her trademarked signature was later added. Typically, her original artwork was named after being incorporated into a master strike off. In some instances, the date of the piece was added to the back; however, this date may signify when the artwork was trademarked or presented to a customer. Some of her original pieces include notes on the back, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of The Vera Company.
