A polished silver fruit bowl features a wide, flared dish resting atop four geometric columns. Each support consists of sharp, zigzag segments stacked in an accordion-like pattern, rising from a flat circular base. The metallic surface glimmers with bright highlights and deep reflections. From our viewpoint, two pillars stand in the foreground, framing the others behind them, while the interior reflects the rhythmic, mirrored structure below.
