Seed pod

This seed is the result of a collaborative work with my friend Lorin Brückin. It is turned then sculpted before being hollowed. The chestnut wood is carved with hand chisels. The finish features two alcohol tints, then rubio oil. The interior is filled with velvety black dyed cotton, then covered with Lorin’s zinc slats. There is just a filigree copper strip in the center.
Natural slate base and forged steel rod.
