The Soul of the Piece

Long and narrow, like the vaulted halls of the old caravanserais on the road out of Kayseri, this runner was made to lead somewhere. A single medallion floats at its heart, the colour of shallow water under winter light, and the flowers around it walk with you as you pass. Place it where people move, a hallway or a long bench, and let it do what it was made for: to accompany.
