Materials: Brazilian Quartzite
Fred Ganim is a furniture-maker who lives and works in Melbourne, Australia. His practice is intuitive and process-driven; clean lines and carefully constructed joints emerge in a contemporary collision of traditional artisanal techniques and modern, forward-thinking ideas.
Based on the Round Table that Ganim created in 2015, this limited-edition piece is carved from a single block of Brazilian Quartzite. The deep blue of the stone is shot through with layers of warm red and cool, natural tones; myriad colours emerge in tightly compressed layers on the table’s smooth surface, and cascade down the legs, each a fluid, folded curve.
