Description from the seller

Spondyle: The "spine" of light by Alexis Legeay

Borrowing its name from the Greek spondulos (the vertebra), this 75 cm sculpture rises as a true luminous spine, fusing organic strength with geometric rigor. Entirely forged in brass, its structure is assembled by silver soldering, a noble jewelry-making technique guaranteeing perfect fusion and eternal solidity.

The work offers a striking play of textures: a satin-finished interior that catches the light, contrasted with an exterior in absolute pure mirror polish. A protective varnish sets this radiance, freeing the piece from any maintenance constraints.

The backlighting by COB LED ribbon emphasizes the piece’s verticality, while a turned brass knob allows you to modulate the intensity. The whole rests on a mineral base worked with lime and marble powder, anchoring this slender silhouette in matter.
