AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Over time, dark spots begin to appear on mirrors. The silver layer gradually oxidizes under the influence of oxygen and water, revealing some of its history. This process can be seen as degradation; however, this project showcases the beauty of this material transition of silver. These mirrors, designed by Lex Pott and David Derksen, display different states of oxidation through an accelerated process. All mirrors are handmade, and the oxidation patterns vary slightly on each piece. This roughness in oxidation, combined with the clean geometric aesthetics, makes each design mirror truly unique and beautiful.

This mirror is in good condition (new) with some rough oxidation spots in the silver, showcasing the charm of the process in the end. We would like to offer it to the Catawiki community at a reduced price (the regular price is 2590 euros, but making offers below 1300 euros doesn't make much sense).
Pay attention, we ship the item in a solid, large wooden crate from a warehouse outside the Netherlands. The reason it might be more expensive than expected on shipment costs. Pickup of items is not possible.

Size: H 1620 x W 540 x D 6 mm
Weight: 13 kgs

Seller's Story

Transnatural manages a unique collection of art & design works. Natural processes, extraordinary material concepts, research and experimentation are often the starting point for the creators. This results in distinctive art and (custom) designs, serving a global network of clients. The artists’ production methods pay close attention to new, alternative energy and environmentally friendly material resources. We explore ways how to (re-) design our living spaces so that users, nature and technology can expand, enrich and feed each other. Transnatural serves a global network of clients (retailers, galleries, architects, designers, consumers) and develops projects that reach beyond any standard result.
