About the Item

The desk 'Origami' is made of extra-clear crystal glass. Each sheet of extra-clear crystal glass is cut and ground with extreme precision, then the sheets are assembled by hand, having to fit together perfectly, the gluing operation requires extreme precision and experience. The final result is spectacular, the sloping edges of the glass create wonderful reflections and crystalline transparencies. Both, paper with its light sense of touch and opacity and glass with its physical heaviness and transparency present contrary features but have also a strong attribute in common: The concept of lightness. The tables origami were created as a result of this theory. Origami desk dimension: W 125 x D 50 x H 75 cm. Dimensions are customizable. Limited Edition of 35. Each table is hand signed by the artists (engraved). 100% handmade in Italy, comes with a “Certificate of Authenticity”. The inspiration for 'Origami' came from the observation of a simple piece of paper which, being folded a few times according to an antique Japanese technique, transforms into complex and delicate figures of innate fascination and beauty: The origami. The idea starts off with the concept of taking advantage of the resistance of glass appreciating its optical lightness with the intent to unveil the similarity between the complex art of origami and the workmanship of glass showing its magic transparency. The artworks by Barberini & Gunnell are regularly shown at international art fairs, such as PAD London, PAD Genève, PAD Monaco, Salon Art + Design New York, ArtMiami.
