Since each piece is crafted by hand, there may be slight variations in weight and dimensions that make each item unique. Additionally, the composition of the rock itself can affect its weight and dimensions, which is why it is important to note that these may vary from product to product.

Carefully selected volcanic rock, hand-picked from the rugged slopes of the volcano Popocatepetl, has been masterfully crafted by a skilled artisan’s chisel and saw, resulting in a truly unique monolithic artful creation. This new functional sculptural collection creates a unique tactile experience that allows you to feel the volume of each piece and opens up a natural connection with the histor y of the rock. We have concentrated on using rocks from the volcano Popocatepetl in Mexico to deepen our connection with our land and bring a piece of nature into our homes. Our inspiration comes from both the histor y of Mexico and our own childhood memories. The design of our Ketl coffee table is inspired by the memor y of an upside-down beetle, struggling unsuccessfully to return to its normal position on a hot day in Mexico City. We brought this memory to life by sculpting a rock in such a way that it reflects this petrified beetle’s failed attempt to stand up straight. Mesawa furniture, a Mexican design brand created by architect Santiago Sierra and designer Diego Linares. Mesawa is the result of deep reflection and incessant experimentation that gives life to unprecedented contrasts, achieving the most refined treatment of its raw material, steel, in contrast with materials of a different nature to create pieces with a modern and minimalist character. Our latest “volcanic” series focuses on the versatility, materiality, design and cultural expression of Mexico by combining steel with volcanic stone to achieve a degree of absolute experimentation in modern furniture. Behind Mesawa there is a story of complicity between two friends motivated to create pieces that fulfill their function, not only decorative, but also for specific use: a piece of furniture is furniture until it is useful to a person. For the brand, the identity of the furniture is transmitted through its simplicity and subtlety in the outline of each of its lines that are represented by the steel structure.
