The Hanging Vase by Oscar Bach, is a sculpture with a thick base that narrows upward. The base has two thick roots twisting around each other, supporting a thick column. The column features sculpted leaves and spheres stacked on top of each other. The bottom layer consists of two large leaves on either side with several spheres in the middle. The next layer features one large leaf with several spheres around it. The top layer features many spheres stacked on top of one another. The entire sculpture is made from a dark metal. The background of the image is gray.
