The darkest of the boulders: a tall handbuilt rock in matte near-black, dented at the flanks, dusted all over with pale sand specks like a night sky in negative. The small mouth holds the run’s recurring dried lavender sprig — staging, not cargo. The color is the clean charcoal the registry’s clear-match rule asks for.
Is it black or very dark brown? In this single frame it photographs soot-black with warm dust — charcoal by the catalog’s naming, a color and nothing more. Piece 1968 of 10,000, listed at $19.68.
