The beauty of this piece precedes its manufacturing and goes back to the extraction of cork from the cork oak tree. When the tree is cut beyond the cork layer, it becomes permanently marked. This cut will later create a sort of air bubble, and that’s where the unique shape of the product originates.
A dance between nature and art. The concave shape of authentic cork meets the purity of white marble in a ballet of forms and textures.
Shell serves multiple purposes, depending on one’s desires and imagination; however, its form allows it to function as a fruit bowl, storage for miscellaneous items, and more.
Each piece, separate, ready to reinvent itself in new compositions and functions.
SHELL is a visual poem, an expression of versatility in constant transformation.
