An exceptional example of Mid-Century Modern glamor, this large-scale vintage acrylic sculpture is a masterful creation by the renowned artist and designer Hivo Van Teal. Celebrated for his ability to manipulate light through thick, clear polymers, Van Teal delivers a dynamic composition featuring intersecting geometric bands, sweeping curves, and angular, prism-cut edges that catch, refract, and bounce ambient light to create a stunning prismatic effect.

The sculpture rests securely on an integrated, heavy-faceted acrylic base which bears the artist’s authentic, etched Van Teal signature on the lower surface. Its substantial presence and abstract form make it a brilliant statement piece for an entryway console, modernist mantle, or dedicated pedestal display.
