Black ash with ebonised finish
A black scroll forms a horizontal plane and then folds in and round and under itself, becoming knotted at one end.
Many solid wood components carved one by one, form a whole with a hidden jointing system for structural strength.
The grain follows the twists and curves of the object to eliminate weak points and form subtle variations in natural texture.
This open grain reminds us of the material quality of ash, its life; a dark ebonised finish presents the piece as a single form.
