The Wode Console Bronze D’oro Pumice Leather features a base hand cast and is finished in bronze D’oro. This console is as much art as it is furniture. The table is shown here in our exclusive Pumice leather. This stunning design provides timeless elegance to an interior scheme and is produced by us to our exacting standards.
Bronze, with its bold timeless appeal, has a strength that is perceptible visually and to the touch. This bronze collection is not a pale imitation from inferior metals but created by a process used for millennia and still used by the craftsmen of today.
The technique is called lost wax casting. Firstly, the design is modelled in wax before being wrapped in clay and dried. Once ready it is heated allowing the wax to pour out, hence the name ‘lost wax’! The cavity left in the clay is then filled by molten bronze. Later the mould is broken revealing the bronze casting. Then a process of sanding, chasing and finishing begins to create the final article. A gentle patina will develop over time defining these as true heirlooms.
