Stay where you are whilst you watch this spinning top dance on the soft platter of wood. Rest, focus, contemplate, breath as the top sways around and slowly comes to a stop.
A playful and at the same time silent or contemplative act, to turn and watch.
To be used on your desk in the office, on the coffee table, or even by your bedside.
The platter is almost like a little pillow, it is based on a discarded piece by Maria van Kesteren that I treasure in my workshop.
Contemplay (serie of 3 in maple and rowan)
Wood is a wonderful and natural material. It will always change colour over time slightly. Do not place an object in a spot where it will be in direct sunlight, this can result in an unbalanced or too much colour change in the wood.
Do not soak or place in dishwasher. Instead use a damp cloth to whipe when necessary.
Platter: ca. 12 x 12 x 2 cm, maple (esdoorn)
Top: ca. 4 x 6 cm, Rowan (peervormige lijsterbes)
Finish: platter, oil; top: oil
These are made in a serie of 3, when you order, you will recieve one set of this serie.
They are similar pieces but slightly different at the same time due to the fact that all pieces of wood are unique and they are handmade.
