About the Item
Made of handcrafted wood, plexiglass and brass, the cabinet-showcase Lost Bronze is inspired by the idea of revealing processes and the importance of structures which usually are hidden. The lost-wax casting for bronze was originated in Crete. Myths narrate that Zeus, the sky and thunder god, was born there in a bee cave – which could symbolise the first foundry for lost-wax casting. Zeus, whose original form was a lightning, could transform in any shape and form like a melting of bronze. The event of the bee cave provoked the primal fear of loosing the original and having a copy – the fear of bein replicated. The external shelve-structure of the cabinet, which is made of acacia wood, acrylic and brass, recalls the channels necessary for a real bronze process. And the heart of the piece, which is made of red coloured wood, hides in its centre a little secret door that refers to an ancient structure known on the Greek island: the labyrinth. The idea of the labyrinth is presented moreover in the inlay works made of zebrano wood in the front doors of the cabinet. Hence, both ideas of bronze and labyrinth fuse together in one piece only. For us it is fascinating to experiment how ancient concepts and elements as well as antique techniques of wood construction can be joined in a contemporary design piece.

By Rossana Orlandi, Hillsideout
Located in Milan, IT
The Sand Senses cupboard features materials made with sand and surface that stimulate senses when touched. Sand seems to have no limit. Burnt sand makes the Murano glass transparent. Concrete incorporates more than one type of sand - one comes from the river and the other one has been transformed through a chemical process. Wood is sandblasted and treated with oil-wax to obtain the smoothest surface possible. Geometric shapes can be found in the concrete legs, in the cupboard doors, as well as on the top enriched with openings in colored Murano glass. With its four colorful doors, two drawers and several shelves, this piece turns out to be a very aesthetically pleasing and practical cupboard; representing the perfect solution for both storing and showcase use...

The virtually impossible balance of the cabinets on top of the stones, their spin and dynamism represent disorientation during the voyage, the journey and the odyssey in the deep ocean. The mirrored surfaces recall the ocean surface.
The last surprise comes from the cabinet’s interiors that are lined in premium gleaming leather.
