The work
Grano takes its name from the grain of rosewood. Blocks of the wood, cut in many sizes and laid in different directions, are set side by side along the arms, the base and the back, so that the figure of the timber becomes a pattern of its own. A fine line of polished bronze runs between them, drawing the composition the way mortar draws a wall.
Bronze returns at the foot of each tapered leg, where a bronze cap meets the floor with a quiet gleam. Seat and back are cushioned in cowhide, soft to the touch and gently marked by nature.
Every side of Grano is composed with equal care. The back carries the same mosaic as the arms, so the sofa reads as a single sculpted object from any angle.
Grano is made to order. Its proportions, wood, bronze finish and upholstery can be tailored to the commission.
