Design details

A shiny black–coated stainless steel and gold leaf circular sculpture stands on a grassy lawn, surrounded by lush green plants and trees. Sunlight filters through the foliage, casting warm light on the gilded surface with a small pond in the background.

Echoing DH Lawrence’s poem ‘Fidelity’, read at Sophie and David’s wedding, the sculpture captures the notion of working harmoniously yet honoring each other’s differences.

A close-up of a person's hand applying shiny gold paint to a white curved surface, capturing the transition between colors. The process highlights techniques used in creating an Eclipse composed of stainless steel and gold leaf modern sculpture.

The inner ring is lined with 24-carat gold leaf, bringing it into spectacular contrast with the painted black finish.

Modern abstract outdoor sculpture—Eclipse composed of stainless steel and gold leaf—with two interlocking loops, one glossy black, one bright yellow. Amid tall grasses and sunlight reflections, a yellow lounge chair and lush green foliage complete the scene.

Eclipse’s base is easily subsumed into the landscape with the use of plants, which helps to incorporate the sculpture as an integral feature of the design of your yard.

Integrated LED lights in the base are positioned to capture the finish of the smaller ring, creating a thin sliver of light that mimics the eclipse.

An Eclipse composed of stainless steel and gold leaf, this contemporary abstract sculpture stands on grass in a lush garden. Dense foliage and trees surround the ring, its circular shape framing textured leaves for a tranquil, slightly overcast scene.

Product information

The rings are supported on a flat stainless-steel base plate that is bolted down to a concrete pad. We ask that this foundation is placed at the proposed site, together with a conduit and a drawcord thread up through the center for the required electricity to supply the integral light.

Shipping quotes can be obtained and charged at cost.

Periodic cleaning will help preserve the beauty of Eclipse. We would recommend that it be cleaned at least once a year with only warm water and a soft cloth to remove any detritus. Use of any abrasive cleaner will damage the finish and must be avoided. The gold leaf gilding should be washed gently with a garden hose. A high-pressure hose should be avoided at all costs. Maintenance instructions will be issued on installation.
