About the Item

Unique design piece The Traditional 1 Stilts Table, size small, was first presented at MADE – Mercado, Arte, Design 2019 in São Paulo, Brazil and is part of the Alma-Raiz (Soul and Roots) Collection from Yankatu. The Alma-Raiz collection is born from the deepening plunge of the designer Maria Fernanda Paes de Barros into Brazilian identity. The pieces made of Cabreúva wood bring the Tucumã straw (typical palm of The Amazon Forest) stained with roots, leaves and fruits and braided by the artisans of the riverside Community of Urucureá, in Pará. Yankatu tables reflect how creative we Brazilians are, and how we are able to perpetuate what pulsates in our land. Designer's words: “In every project I dive deeply into the lives of people who work with me. It´s a dive governed by research, guided by heart, made with respect, confidence and following the pace dictated by time. Every collection is an encounter of souls and essences. I transform myself and bring about transformations, attitudes that reflect on people, their surroundings and beyond. The palpable part of this work are the pieces that intertwine my gaze with that of the lives that share their moments with me. The other part, immeasurable, is constantly developing in a mix of art and freedom with no time to end." The “SOUL”: All the pieces produced by Yankatu are unique and accompanied by its soul, a certificate of authenticity in the form of a small book that tells about the inspiration that gave birth to it, the artisans live and the place they live in. The book leaves some pages blank for those who acquired it can continue to tell their story. This turns it into something more, which doesn't change with fashion, which doesn't pass with time. On the contrary, it will move on from a generation to another, from hand to hand, each time with more stories to tell, incorporating the lives shared by it. Important information: The wood comes from nature and each one is unique, with its veins, knots and tones. Due it is a natural material it suffers with the climate change, so cracks and shifts in color may emerge over time. The wood can also warp sometimes due to a large variation in relative humidity of the air. The Tucumã straw used in some of the pieces is handmade and natural so it can also suffer from the action of time, lightness and humidity. These same effects can occur with fabrics and other details incorporated into the piece. These characteristics are part of the history of the piece not considered defects. The handcrafted details do not repeat themselves; they may be similar but never equal. It is this imperfect perfection that makes each one of them unique. The first photo corresponds to the described product above. The other photos may come accompanied by other pieces of Yankatu collections. Brazilian Contemporary and Collectible Design by Yankatu, design + art with Brazilian soul.
