Forever Joy Artichoke Sculpture — Textured Emerald Evergreen Closed Bud
Large | 14.5 cm diameter | 39 cm tall including stem
Finished in a rich emerald evergreen, this closed artichoke bud is defined by its gentle bend toward the stem — a subtle gesture that gives the piece a sense of movement and quiet introspection. The elongated, uniquely shaped leaves add to its sculptural character, making it feel both elegant and deeply organic.
Though closed, the bud does not feel withdrawn. Its textured surface adds depth and feeling, catching light in unexpected ways and amplifying the emotion held within the form. It speaks of humility, resilience, and strength that does not need to stand rigid to be powerful — sometimes growth curves, adapts, and still rises.
As with all Forever Joy sculptures, this piece began as a seed germinated by hand, grown with care, harvested, dried, and transformed into a lasting reminder of nature honoured and preserved.
With its tall, expressive silhouette, this sculpture works beautifully as a statement piece on a console, beside a chair, or in a quiet corner where its gentle lean can be appreciated. It invites reflection — a reminder that grace is often found in flexibility, and that there is beauty in choosing softness without losing strength.
A sculptural symbol of endurance, intention, and becoming.
