The lovely thing about this piece is that it doesn't. Five slim steel stalks emerge from a single base point, each topped with a coloured glass marble — and the gardener decides how splayed or tightly bunched the cluster sits. Pull them together for a tight nodding bouquet, splay them wide for an exuberant fan, or settle them somewhere in between.
