Description from the seller
The Apple: An Object of Curiosity by Alexis Legeay
A desire and contemplation object, The Apple reinterprets a universal symbol through a mineral and precious aesthetic. This ornamental sculpture is shaped in a biosourced material structure, coated with a noble lime-based finish and marble powder for a matte, organic exterior.
The heart of the piece reveals a striking contrast: the interior is entirely gold-leafed brass and then varnished. This precious cavity acts as a natural reflector that captures and magnifies the surrounding light, creating a deep and warm glow. The object is finished with a single brass tail, worked by deformation and polished to a brilliant shine, bringing a sophisticated finish to the whole.
In an intimate format, this numbered piece plays with the changing reflections of its gold heart throughout the day.
● Designer: Alexis Legeay
● Dimensions: 16 x 16 x 11 cm
● Materials: Lime, marble powder, polished brass and interior gold-leafed
● Exclusivity: Very small series, each piece is numbered and signed.

Biography of the artist-designer Alexis Legeay:
The Alchemy of Light and Movement
Artisan, inventor and sculptor, Alexis Legeay redefin es the luminous object through a constant quest for technical elegance and visual poetry.
A Path of Excellence
In 2016, he founded Atelier Axel Simon, a creative space where raw material is transformed into exceptional pieces. His talent was quickly recognized by his peers: in 2018, he was honored with the First Departmental and Regional Prize for the Arts, a distinction that acknowledges the rigor of his execution and the originality of his vision.
Mastery of Matter
At the heart of his French atelier, Alexis Legeay engages with noble and varied materials:
Metals: steel, brass and bronze.
Mineral and Organic: glass and wood.
High-Quality Finishes: mastery of goldleaf gilding for a precious and timeless look.
Between Invention and Kinetic Art
Alexis does not merely fabricate; he innovates. Holder of several patents, he adds an engineering dimension to his creations. His interest in kinetic art — the art of movement — gives his luminaires a life of their own, playing with shadows and structures. This monumental approach even led him to undertake a major work as part of the 1% artistic program.
"Each piece is a signature, a bridge between traditional French craftsmanship and technological innovation."
