Solar Eclipse

Creator: Sten Studio
Offered by: Sten Studio

Description
The contraposition of brass and obsidian is highlighted through LED lights that, upon being turned on, offer a unique view of the piece. The two potential states of it correspond to the metaphor in which the Sun (brass) and Moon (obsidian) create a dynamic play of light and shadow; the moon clearly reflects the natural light, as in those moments in which it remains visible in the celestial panorama during the day, while it entirely absorbs artificial light, generating a singular block in the composition when observed in the dark. The impossibility of a complete darkening works also as a reminder that solar eclipses can be seen only from certain parts of the Earth at a time.

Message from Seller:

Sten Studio is a design enterprise located in Mexico City, whose motive is to create objects and furniture that turn the use of minerals as materials into their essence. Thanks to it, all pieces are unique, given the characteristics proper to each of the stones. The studio is born from the passion for geology and industrial design, which has resulted in the experimentation with rock crystals that are yet to be explored in the world of decoration.
