Aperture: Ottoman in Copper by TJ Volonis
About the Item
Title: Aperture
Year: 2013
Ottoman / footstool executed in 1/2" copper tubing with upholstered seat, inspired by the iconic arc of a camera aperture. The solid squares of the base and cushion are connected by 12 angled supports that gracefully connect the two pieces creating an optical illusion that the piece is floating lightly off of the floor. Cushion is made of high-grade foam mounted on a piece of 1/2" solid wood (not particle board).
PRICED INDIVIDUALLY.
*Several finishes available, please inquire.*
