Gli Oggetti - Pura

Sculpted from white Carrara marble, the Pura bowl is a new edition of the crystal version designed in 1988 produced exclusively for Poltrona Frau.‎ The minute variations in thickness enhance the veins of the marble.‎ Light penetrates the thinner and thicker parts of the piece to different degrees, emphasising the transparency and opacity of the material.‎ The balance between volumes and voids determines the asymmetric shape of the bowl, which naturally rests on one side.‎ The marble has been produced by numerically controlled techniques and then smoothed by hand to achieve the semi-smooth finish that preserves the natural appearance of the material.‎ On the bottom of the bowl, a circular brass plaque in a Ruthenium finish bears the signature of the Master and the Poltrona Frau logo.‎
