The shape of Quill’slaser-cut petals can be either lenticular or ovoid, bringing movement and a natural variation to the sculpture. The internal powder-coated paint color creates a dramatic effect in this narrow atrium. Quill’s small footprint both maximizes smaller spaces and encourages you to look skyward.

Quill’s petals spiral outwards to form a web of delicate folioles inspired by the natural patterns spontaneously formed by the forces of the physical world.

Natural patterns are formed spontaneously by the forces of the physical world, drawing inspiration from Quill’s petals as they spiral outward to form a web of delicate folioles.

“Everything turned out perfectly, and WE LOVE THE QUILL!”

Discreet LED lighting illuminates the interior of the piece, transforming Quill into a lantern to be enjoyed at night.

Product information

Quill is supplied with a base plate. The client will need to provide a smooth and level stone or concrete pad positioned just below ground level to attach this plate to. Stainless-steel bolts are then resin-fixed into holes and drilled into the stone or concrete pad to provide a secure fixing. It is possible to supply Quill with an LED light for which an electrical supply will need to be threaded up through the center of the concrete pad. We supply the driver for the LED lighting.

Shipping quotes can be obtained and charged at cost.

The finishes will exhibit some natural weathering with age. However, periodic cleaning will help preserve its beauty. We would recommend that it be cleaned at least once a year but only with warm water and a soft cloth to remove any detritus. Use of any abrasive cleaner will damage the finish and must be avoided.

The interior 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.
