Product description

OBSIDIAN FOLD is a bold exploration of tension, reflection, and sculptural compression.

Inspired by folded geometry and origami-like movement, the form appears to twist upward from the marble base as if captured mid-motion. Its reflective black surface absorbs and distorts its surroundings—turning architecture, light, and human presence into part of the artwork itself.

The contrast between the liquid stainless steel surface and the solid marble base creates a powerful dialogue between precision and permanence. This is a sculpture designed not to decorate a space, but to define it.
