Paddle LXX IX | Small Wall Sculpture (SOLD)

Graceful and organic, this smaller Paddle LXXX II by Jo Richards Hooker captures the rhythm of movement and the enduring spirit of travel. Handcrafted in ceramic, each piece embodies strength, flow, and quiet determination — a reflection on navigating life’s challenges with balance and grace.

The highly textured, creviced surface is rich with natural detail, evoking the interplay of land and sea. Every paddle is individually formed and finished, making each one a unique work of art that celebrates imperfection and the artist’s hand.

A discreet loop is secured at the top of the knotted four-plait rope for easy hanging on a small picture hook or pin nail. Perfect on its own or as part of a grouped display, this compact piece brings a touch of coastal elegance and organic texture to any interior.

Dimensions: 25 × 6 × 4 cm
Weight: approx. 0.3 kg

Each piece is handcrafted and unique — a timeless expression of New Zealand artistry and natural connection.
