The piece
Carved from a single mass of dense timber, this piece explores the tension between brutalist geometry and intricate negative space. The cylindrical silhouette is anchored by a solid, softly rounded top and base, framing an openwork lattice body punctuated by hand-chiseled nodes. Finished in a deep, matte ebonized patina, the surface balances tactile roughness within the openwork against the quiet, satiny plane of the seat. Conceived as an architectural pedestal or low sculptural anchor, it commands presence through shadow play, mass, and material permanence.
Key Features (Material & Structural Specifications)
-
Monolithic Carving: Hollowed and sculpted from a single solid timber block, preserving structural integrity without mechanical joints.
-
Intricate Lattice Geometry: A hand-chiseled openwork lattice featuring projecting nodal points, creating a dynamic interplay of depth, light, and shadow.
-
Tactile Surface Interplay: A subtle contrast between the smooth, hand-burnished circular top and the raw, textural carving of the central cage.
-
Matte Ebonized Finish: Saturated in deep carbon black, highlighting the sculptural form while subduing the timber's grain into a quiet, monolithic presence.
Care
Dust regularly using a dry, soft microfiber cloth or a soft-bristled brush to gently clean between the carved lattice openings. For spot maintenance, wipe the surface lightly with a cloth barely dampened with lukewarm water and dry immediately. Strictly avoid chemical sprays, abrasive pads, natural oils, or wax-based polishes, as these will saturate the ebonized pores and alter the matte carbon finish. Intended solely for climate-controlled indoor spaces; keep away from heating elements, radiators, and harsh direct sunlight to avoid timber movement and thermal cracking.
Delivery
Delivery and import duties are included, wherever you are: nothing to pay on arrival. Each piece is packed by hand, insured and shipped with a specialist carrier. The delivery date is arranged with you, and white-glove installation can be added on request.
The craft
Made by hand by Moroccan artisans. Variations in tone, texture and form are part of the work: no two pieces are exactly alike.
The making
A work, not a product.
Collectible pieces are made one at a time, by a single workshop, over several weeks. Dimensions, finish and material can be adapted to your space: our team follows each commission from the first sketch to installation.
