This is a Console made in Solid Pippy Oak and powder coated mild steel blades.
Here Arnaldo and Stefano combine and juxtapose the organic shape and the texture of the timber board with the more rigid and artificial shape of the metal blades. The natural value of the timber has been emphasised colouring the edge in black, establishing a bidirectional dialogue between the curved line of the board and the straight lines of the blades.
The shapes of the blades are here more complex then in the “vertical” solution to stretch the horizontal dimension.
The console is 145 cm long and circa 22 cm in the widest point and a variable thickness of 25/30mm. Metal blades are 3mm thick.
