It is both a cabinet and a collection, holding a suspended moment where the trace of nature becomes structure, and surface becomes story.

Blurring the boundaries between the natural and the made, the purposeful and the incidental. A geometric shelf, a vessel for curiosities, where the distinction between container and content begins to dissolve. Its form, seemingly geometric and rational, begins to shift — edges soften, angles flow, lines bend. Its open frame appears to breathe, becoming a living extension of the space it inhabits. Embedded within its planes are porcelain shells, moulded from real finds, occupying some spaces as if already collected. If real shells are placed among them, as part of the display, it invites a confusion, provoking the viewer to question what is collected and what is inherent, what is real and what is replication.

The shelf becomes its own curiosity — a contemporary trompe l'oeil that invites touch, attention, and reflection. It is not merely a static object but a puzzle, encouraging interaction, interpretation, and a slowing down of the gaze. The found becomes the foundational; the past, a platform for the future. This object explores the potential of craft as a keeper of memory and material intelligence, but also as a medium for disorientation, intimacy, and rediscovery. In a world increasingly shaped by speed and clarity, this ambiguous object invites a surprise as a powerful form of connection.

The listing price is for one white porcelain shelf. It can be used in a standing position or hanging on the wall. Other objects shown in the photos are not included.
