The graphic black and white bands run vertically from base to shoulder, narrowing as the form tapers, so the pattern follows the shape rather than fighting it. The glaze is high-gloss and the stripes are crisp-edged, which gives the piece a hand-painted precision you notice more the closer you get.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold stem is what lifts it. A sculpted leaf curls against the shoulder and the stem arcs away in polished gold, warming a palette that would otherwise read as purely graphic. At 6 inches high the pear has enough presence to hold a coffee table on its own, while still being small enough to tuck into a shelf or bookcase without crowding what surrounds it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign Function\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA sculptural ceramic accent designed to bring graphic contrast, a warm metallic note, and organic shape to a tabletop without adding visual weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ceramic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black and White with Gold Stem\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-gloss glaze with polished gold-tone stem and leaf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vertical striped pattern with sculpted leaf detail\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 Inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Role:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accent Piece\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSold As:\u003c\/strong\u003e One ceramic pear\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wipe with a dry cloth; indoor decorative use\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCategory Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin our decorative object collection, this pear sits in the graphic category rather than the naturalistic one. The stripe is bold enough to function as pattern in its own right, which distinguishes it from the solid ceramic and glass fruit that reads primarily as shape. The gold stem keeps the black and white from feeling severe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Style It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive the pear a surface with some quiet around it. On a coffee table, place it near a taller vase so the eye moves between the two heights, or set it on a tray with one other object rather than three. It is particularly effective against warm stone and pale upholstery, where the black stripe provides the only hard contrast in the arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep red and burgundy florals are its natural partner. The dark bloom against the black stripe reads as intentional, and the gold stem picks up the warmth. Resist grouping it with other patterned objects; the stripe should be the only pattern working in that vignette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Works Best\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee tables, entry consoles, dining tables, kitchen islands, open shelving, bookcases, and buffets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMel's Styling Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI love this one with burgundy or merlot florals. The deep red against the black and white is beautiful, and the gold stem keeps it from feeling too stark. I would let it sit near a white vase with a few branches rather than surrounding it with a lot of small objects. It has a strong enough shape that it does not need company to be noticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite and cream ceramics, black or smoked glass, warm stone and travertine, antique brass and gold accents, burgundy and merlot florals, and deep plum tapers. Keep the surrounding palette simple so the stripe stays the graphic moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlso Available In\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA coordinating \u003ca href=\"\/products\/4-75-inch-black-white-striped-ceramic-apple-with-gold-leaf-stem\"\u003e4.75 Inch Black \u0026amp; White Striped Ceramic Apple with Gold Leaf Stem\u003c\/a\u003e is also available.

Because the stripes are applied by hand, slight variations in width and spacing may be visible from piece to piece and are part of the character of the glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Insight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 6 inch black and white striped ceramic pear with a polished gold leaf and stem brings graphic contrast and sculptural shape to coffee tables, consoles, and shelf styling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Third \u0026 Main","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52268402999592,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/9726\/2908\/files\/black_and_white_striped_ceramic_pear_with_gold_stem.jpg?v=1787268697","url":"https:\/\/www.mythirdandmain.com\/products\/6-inch-black-white-striped-ceramic-pear-with-gold-leaf-stem","provider":"Third \u0026 Main","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
