Farfalle Sphere Marble
Farfalle Sphere Marble Dimensions: 12” x 12” x 12”
The Farfalle Sculpture by Chicago sculptor Karl Geckler is a graceful exploration of movement, symmetry, and form. Carved from limestone, this custom sculpture transforms the rigid geometry of a sphere into a fluid, organic structure—its butterfly-like wings extending outward with lightness and poise. The name Farfalle, meaning “butterfly” in Italian, reflects the sculptural gesture of motion captured in stone.
Additionally, the sculpture’s polished finish enhances its contours while highlighting the subtle textures and natural beauty of the limestone. The balanced curves and intersecting planes invite viewers to experience the piece from multiple perspectives, making it an ideal fit for interior sculpture, gallery collections, or hospitality art environments.
As part of Karl Geckler’s expanding body of contemporary stone work, this piece stands out for its quiet elegance and timeless presence. Learn more about the use of marble in sculpture or explore modern sculpture trends to appreciate the context behind Karl Geckler’s innovative designs.
