TORSO

TORSO is a series of three side tables or stools with biomorphic silhouettes. The Torso series is carved from a stack of laminated, reclaimed Wenge parquet. Hundreds of blocks of this rare and endangered tropical hardwood have been salvaged from a school in Leicester where it lay as a herringbone floor for almost 60 years. Each amalgamation of refurbished Wenge is carved with a sinuous surface that form three heights of small tables, each bearing a unique torso like shape.
