Immerse yourself in the fiery essence of this artwork, a radiant explosion of golden hues that captures the raw intensity of a sunburst. The central tableau is a fusion of amber, saffron, and honey, each tone bleeding into the next to create a molten core that pulses with life. This incandescent heart is framed by a galaxy of translucent orbs, their delicate outlines ranging from pale champagne to deep apricot, seemingly afloat in the cosmic void of the black border. The arrangement is a masterful display of light and color, a visual representation of heat and energy that mesmerizes and draws one into the depths of its burning supernova soul.

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.
