The small Oval Encalmo bowl is perhaps Stewart Hearn’s most signature style, favoured by tastemakers for its clarity, decorative element and functionality. The Encalmo technique – originating in Italy – involves the joining together of two separately blown bubbles, resulting in a clear definition where the two meet. It’s an incredibly complex method that requires great skill, something Hearn so modestly disguises with the artful simplicity of this piece’s form.
