Curatorial Description:
Astral Keepsake is a hand-painted glass vessel, modest in size but powerful in presence. Through expressive strokes of ultramarine, flame yellow, and cosmic orange, this piece evokes the feeling of a celestial body in motion. The lid, crowned with a spherical handle, resembles a tiny planet cracking open with light and pigment.

Part of the German Expressionist Astral series, the object holds both symbolic and functional weight — a keeper of memories, dreams, or prayers. The layering of paint suggests orbits of time and energy, transforming this everyday glass into a spiritual artifact.
