No synthetics and apart from sustainably sourced teak slats made in 100% recycled aluminium. It is a tough product that will stand the test of time and endure the elements for generations- this is solid longevity. Casting allows a simplicity of fabrication that ensures solid durability, it also gives an opportunity to be more efficient during the production process as any mistakes can be easily melted down and cast again. In part by analysing the qualities of liquid molten metal the form and shape developed. The soft contours and washed curves that engulf the “line” of this series, resemble a river stone which has been slowly worn down over years to the quiet organic shape that only water and time create. A multitude of these river stones can be found on any river bed, all different in form, scale, profile, contour, colour and variety, and yet, each are independently and unquestionably beautiful. Mother nature has taken the time to mold each one so perfectly and so randomly. The presence of stone, of rock the very foundation of our planet is a silent witness, a power of strength; stone and rock in all their rawness and solidness are reliable, strong and firm. We take for granted that a mountain today will be mountain tomorrow and still a mountain 100 years from now. Yet the force and unstoppable wave of time wears down those rocks and stones with an unpredictable natural power, both creative and destructive.
