WETLAND - Журнальный столик / табурет

WETLAND Stool is made of ABONOS OAK WOOD preserved in EXTRACLEAR RESIN, resembling the water that has kept it over millennia.‎ The legs are in BURNISHED STEEL.‎ The natural wood surface is not covered by resin on the section planes since alcarol always use a selective wood coating with a matt natural effect.‎ Materials: Abonos Oak Wood dated 5th Century BC (radiocarbon dating) Transparent Resin   A wetland is an ecosystem that is saturated with water, which in some cases preserves materials such as wood for millennia.‎ Abonos is a Celtic name which indicates the “fossil” wetland wood type of some rare alluvial areas of the Alps, where minerals and water have started the semi-fossilization process of the submerged trees.‎ Currents bind the minerals and iron in the water with tannins in the wood, naturally hardening and colouring the wood in the process.‎ This is clearly visible on the chromatics scale of the woodgrain – changing from golden to black – with always unique shades.‎ This wood finally comes to light like a jewel of the past, through a careful, complex work of recovery and processing.‎ Like the water over millennia, the alcarol’s transparent resin surrounds the organic shapes of this unique wood, preserving and enhancing all its preciousness and charm.‎ Each piece is unique because of the organic material shape included in the resin.‎ Further info from manufacturer on WETLAND Alcarol
