PRODUCT

Arcos Vase

 

MANUFACTURE

Asprey

 

DESIGNER

Damián Garrido

 

MATERIALS

Sterling Silver

 

DIMENTIONS

39.5 cm wide by 41.5 cm high

 

DESCRIPTION

I just love the volume of this piece and the fact is made of sterling silver.  As you well know I am a big fan of sterling silver – It is my favourite material.  I also like the fact that they are two great pieces in one piece.  I am not so much fan of motion pieces but this is an extraordinary exception.

With a tag of £17,000 I guess this piece is a real eye candy, as much as I would like to have it. It is only ever for me to gaze upon.

 

YUMMY FACTOR

Unattainably Delicious  !!!

DESCRIPTION

This new chair has a contemporary/retro vibe that I really like.  The inspiration comes from a  shell shape that evokes a birds cage. 

 

I feel this kind of shape cocoons you in a safe but yet close place.  Some of the lines remained me the chairs that Kelly Wearstler uses in some of her interior design projects.

 

This is the kind of piece that is memorable and makes a strong statement at the same time.  Loves it!

Eye Candy of the Week – Atlas Dining Table

PRODUCT

Atlas Dining Table

 

DESIGNER

Ashley Hicks

 

DIMENSIONS

29.5” H X 40” D X 82” L

 

MATERIALS

Oak & Cast Metal Legs

 

DESCRIPTION

The Atlas dining table has a top of smooth stained oak, on cast metal legs whose pierced, attenuated form was inspired by Oceanic sculpture - but also makes the idea table base, gracefully avoiding diners’ legs.


Custom finishes and sizes are available. Shown here in black stained oak. – Ashley Hicks Website.

 

This piece by Ashley Hicks has a “Je ne sais quoi” quality to it.  The table has very interesting visual weight as a complete piece and definitely exudes a very sleek contemporary vibe. 

 

The fact that the main material is solid oak makes it warm, real.   The legs, I have to say, are my favourite part, they are organic and futuristic.  The blend of all these elements makes this piece memorable and unique.

 

YUMMY FACTOR

Delicious !!!
