FUJI

Unique piece

Height: 6.7cm

Width: 45cm

Length: 63.5cm

A book collector came to the workshop with a manuscript to create a case to protect it.  The book is a collection of poems on Mount Fuji illustrated with calligraphy included in circles.

 

The poems, the title and the illustrations call for contemplation.  Kostia wanted to transcribe this spirit and create a box that intrigues and prepares the reader for a discovery of its content.

 

The box is in Tamo, with a circular patinated bronze inlay in the presence of the artist calligrapher. 

The hinges were designed and created by the workshop so that once opened the box is completely flat.
