"Stone Hinge"
16" high x 55" x 25"
This piece is a functional interpretation of a play on words.
The "stone" is actually curved and textured cypress. The "hinge" is constructed out of ash. The screws are mesquite & hand turned on the lathe.
The piece is held together by a steel infrastructure that took some creative planning.
