Lot 7 Bethan Laura Wooid, The Criss Cross collection of limited edition light fixtures best reflect Bethan Laura Wood's kaleidoscopic identity unfolding into designs rich in symbolic and material stratifications where color is always at the core of an aesthetic research exploring the balance between classical elegance and the seemingly effortless beauty of natural elements. The essential role of playing with an incredible variety of multicolored single units (Blooms wall/table light) to create potentially never-ending and multipurpose configurations (Kite chandelier), generate Bethan’s iconic as dreamy sculptural light objects which ulti- mately enact the deep bond they establish with each one of us' personality and needs. -- Unique Shipped from Italy Item liable to VAT Largh. 24 - Alt. 21,45 Cm 2013

Lot 11 Cara / Davide, Archivio is a small table or bench con- structed from a single sheet of archived Verde Lapponia quartzite. The idea was to repurpose the archived material, trans- forming it into an object using few and simple technologies.

Lot 13 Frascina Cosma, ERODED PANORAMA results from research and experi- mentation oriented towards a more spontaneous work- ing process, in harmony with the morphological qualities of the material, in both formal and aesthetic terms. The inspiration for the project arises from the observation of textures created by the abrasive process of the combinated action of atmospheric agents, both on ancient buildings made of calcarenite and in nature. By integrating the action of water and compressed air with traditional sculptural techniques, it has been possible to accelerate the natural process of erosion of the material in a controlled environment, and obtain unique objects characterized by a strong materiality. -- Unique Shipped from Italy Item liable to VAT Largh. 45 - Prof. 50 - Alt. 50 Cm 2018

Lot 15 Cristián Mohaded & Santiago Lena, Raza is born of the encounter of two materials that penetrate and reject each other simultaneously. The strength and density of the stoneware surrenders to the thrush of fibers, wholly detached from any trace of fragility. Raza speaks of the mark that connections pro- voke and the poetry where nuance is born. Raza honors difference and pluralism through the expression of unique natures...that can only emerge in contact with the strange and anomalous. -- Unique Shipped from Argentina Item liable to VAT Largh. 50 - Prof. 14 - Alt. 30 Cm 2021

Lot 16 Mohaded Cristián, NINHO uses as the main material dis- carded carpet edges; overlapping layers result in volumes that seem to grow around the object containing its perimeter. Once again the designer Cristián Mohaded takes a discarded part of a massive production industry to an object of contemplation that becomes a provocation to the senses achieved from the unconventional use of a material. NINHO is presented as a col- lection of mirrors and bowls in different sizes and curved shapes that give place to rounded surfaces generated by the fil- aments. The material is presented as a rigid coat fur forming defined surfaces and volumes. A natural appearance and color resembles an animal fur dressing the object. -- Unique Shipped from Argentina Item liable to VAT Largh. 25 - Alt. 40 Cm 2018

Lot 18 Celentino Cristina, The Cufflinks coffee tables take inspiration from the geometries of the cufflinks. The reference, in oversize format, becomes a coffee table that maintains the allure and sophistication of this iconic male accessory. The shape of the table top echoes the faceted geometries of the upper part of the cufflinks: in the auction pieces the marble top, matt polished Giallo Noce or polished Nuvolato Etrusco, both Budri marbles, is further embellished by the satin steel edging. The structure, brushed stain- less steel, is formed by two metal blades, while the cylinder with rounded ends at the base recalls the precious volume of the torpedo cufflinks clip. The entire structure of the tables is made of stainless steel with a satin finish. Cristina Celestino often gets her project inspiration from the world of jewelry: where the shape of the jewelry becomes function and the attention to the aesthetic aspect is never decorative only. -- Unique Shipped from Italy Item liable to VAT Largh. 40 - Prof. 40 - Alt. 55 Cm 2021
