Coral Bowl
This bowl was carved from pristine white Carrara marble with no impurities or veins. The immaculately polished interior contrasts with the rough-textured exterior. To achieve the outer surface, Jean used stonework techniques based exclusively on geometry: before cutting the marble, he used compasses and square rulers to carry out the measurements. Nevertheless, the piece is evocative of organic forms such as seashells.
