About the Item

Daté Kan stone candleholders by Okurayama Studio and Dan Yeffet Title: GOLDEN ‘MENHIRS’ Measures: Large F 130 x H 320mm / 6.7kg Medium: F 120 x H 245mm / 4.4kg Small: F 107 x H 175mm / 3.5kg Daté Kan stone, brass GOLDEN ‘MENHIRS’ A candleholder, retaining the polished rusty color of Daté Kan Stone like a flame, and being combined with a brazen part. The candleholder is equipped with a form, which reminds a megalith towering in the wilds-as indicated by its name “MENHIR”, which means monolith-a geological feature consisting of a single massive stone or rock that was placed during the Prehistoric Europe. The product is a timeless interior item, which stirs imagination toward the magnificent landscape. Designer: Dan Yeffet Born in 1971 in Jerusalem, Israel. Studied Industrial Design at Bezalel Academy: School of Art and Design in Jerusalem (1999-2001). He then moved to the Netherlands where he graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam in 2002 (BA in Industrial/product design). After his graduation he set up his studio in Amsterdam. In 2005 he moved his studio to Paris where he still works. Dan’s work stretches from space to objects, and everything in between, and in various methods, from Classic Craft work to cutting edge technologies. The Daté Kan stone is a rare stone that exist only in a few mountains in Japan. The defining characteristic of Date´ Kan Stone is that its surface and interior are completely different in appearance. Just when you think the surface is ocher in color, rust-colored sections and reddish-brown streaks like those found on Bizen pottery will appear. No two pieces have the same appearance. The stone’s interior, however, is a uniformly dark-grey color with rusty hues that slowly become more prominent as the years go by. That contrast can be utilized to produce a stone that looks like none other in the world; gorgeous ocher and reddish-brown sections are left partially visible while cut edges are polished to a glossy sheen. This unique process of shaping the stone’s appearance leverages the experience and aesthetic sense that Okurayama Studio has developed through our interaction with a multitude of creators. Date´ Kan stone is a kind of basalt / igneous rock known as two-pyroxene basaltic andesite that was created, circa 20 million years ago. It has a dense grain and high specific gravity due to its significant iron content, which makes it resistant to water and gives it a brilliant luster when polished. Visitors to the Okurayama quarry can observe raw Date´ Kan ore in a variety of forms such as the columnar joints that protrude from the Earth’s surface and the weathered round boulders that are mined from it. Columnar joints are created when cooling magma hardens and contracts, generating fissures on the cooled surface which then spread internally in the vertical direction. The rusty color characteristic of Okurayama’s stone is believed to be the result of air and moisture penetrating these fissures and oxidizing the iron content of the columnar joints on the two occasions when the area sunk to the ocean floor due to shifts in the Earth’s crust. Cutting the Date´ Kan ore in sections parallel to the joints gives it sculpted shapes that provide a wealth of inspiration even in their unprocessed forms. The wholly unique form and appearance of Date´ Kan stone continues to fascinate architects, artists, and designers both within Japan and abroad. At Okurayama Studio, the highly skilled staff handles the entire process of quarrying, processing, and shaping our Date´ Kan Stone, which is internationally renowned for its unique appearance. We deliver the strength and beauty of Date´ Kan stone to the world in a variety of forms of art and design sculptural pieces. .
