Memphis Handmade Trinket Box: Striking Woodwork, Postmodern Design Collectible
About the Item
Exquisite handmade trinket box crafted from three distinct woods by a talented American Woodworker in the vibrant 1990s. This piece showcases a masterful play of high contrast stripes and bold, frank perspectives, reminiscent of the iconic work of renowned architect Mario Botta.
The box has three legs meticulously stripped in consecutive layers of light and dark wood. This design element adds a dynamic visual dimension to the piece, drawing the eye towards the heart of the box.
There's a rebellious sharpness to this box that echoes the timeless ethos of the postmodern movement. Every aspect of it is a testament to the artist's unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and design excellence.
Signed by the artist on the side of the box.
