About the Item
WMF small table by MOB
Limited editions of 5 + 1 prototype
Designer: Alejandra Prieto and Pablo Valle (Chile)
Dimensions: H 72 x W 70 cm
Material: Polished bronze, chestnut wood, shou-sugi-ban (Yakisugi) treatment
The WMF is a small pedestal table: a charred wood base supports a round table top in polished bronze. The base is made up of two carved chestnut wood pieces joined by a small bronze disc that is likely to rust by the presence of air moisture. The light reflects off the table’s polished surface hinting at ancient Chinese and European bronze mirrors (produced long before the discovery of glass). On the other hand, the use of charred wood draws from Yakisugi, a pre-modern Japanese technique to seal wood. The wood grain stands out in a dark black finish in sharp contrast to the metallic luster of polished bronze. Hence the WMF table aims at bringing together different historical times, the outcome of a modernist interpretation of timeless materials.
MOB is an international design incubator that develops furniture projects designed by artists and architects.
Based in Lisboa and Santiago de Chile, MOB aims to invite young creators from different parts of the world to present proposals that confront their points of view around a piece of furniture. Through exercises based on their own local realities, these pieces are located in a global scene and then finally return to the intimate context of their daily use.
MOB invites creatives with both emerging and established careers, always under the premise of looking for fresh and particular voices with their own style and challenging their contexts. In this way, they want to materialize personal research into products capable of transmitting the complexity of social and formal thinking.
MOB aims to produce commercial pieces that establish connections capable of developing crossovers between multiple places, creators, users, and ideas, through a production model based on commissioning design by invitation, manufacturing and distributing certificated limited editions by MOB ensuring high production standards.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
