Lathe III
Æ//
This collection draws inspiration from the classical turned leg, found beneath numerous wooden tables. By deconstructing the table and utilizing solely its legs results in the creation of a collection featuring stools, side tables and pedestals.
The name of this collection refers to the lathe, a machine tool that rotates a piece of wood about an axis of rotation to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding and turning. The end result is an object characterized by a profound symmetry emanating from its central axis.
For ÆTHER/MASS, collaboration multiplies what is possible by getting access to the skills that have been mastered by others. For the making of this object, we worked closely together with CasimirAteliers, master woodworkers specialised in high-end solid wooden furniture.
