This unique piece is an old teak wood trunk slice, mounted on a black metal base. The wood slice, from an old teak tree, reveals a robust and noble character, specific to this precious and durable wood species. Teak, known for its density and resistance to the elements, displays here a rich texture, with visible growth rings that tell the story of the years gone by.
The surface of the slice has a naturally warm hue, varying from golden brown to dark brown, with subtle veins and cracks that add character to the whole. The irregular edges, left natural, emphasize the organic origin of the piece, while some parts may be slightly patinated or marked by time, accentuating its old and authentic appearance.
The black metal base, minimalist and refined, serves as an elegant and contemporary base for the wood slice. The contrast between the warmth of the teak and the coldness of the metal creates a striking visual balance. The metal, often matte or lightly textured, brings a modern touch that highlights the rusticity of the wood without distracting from its natural character.
Together, the teak wood trunk slice and the metal base form a sculptural work that celebrates both the raw beauty of nature and modern design. This piece, both decorative and symbolic, can fit into a contemporary or classic space, adding a touch of organic sophistication.
