This pair of brass side tables embody a synthesis of geometric rigor and sculptural expressiveness, situating them at the intersection of functional design and collectible art. Their faceted bases, reminiscent of crystalline growths or origami folds, embrace an angular dynamism that catches and refracts light. The result is a surface animation that transforms with the viewer’s movement, imbuing the static form with a sense of temporal flux.
Executed by hand in polished brass, the tables draw upon the material’s long-standing associations with opulence and ritual. The golden surfaces act as both mirror and monolith: they reflect their environment while asserting a commanding physical presence.
The pairing of a taller and a lower piece suggests a dialogue of proportions. The octagonal tops subtly soften the severity of the base, creating a deliberate counterpoint between plane and facet. These tables incorporate mineral-inspired forms and a digital-age aesthetic of faceted modeling, but remain grounded in the artisanal precision of metalworking.
