The artisanal process of creating our Clam tables gives each piece an individual soul and patina, as the temperature, humidity and hands at work all contribute to its distinctiveness. If asked, we would described it as ethereal brutalism with handmade irregularity at its core, revealing the material's inherent beauty through a process that allows limited control. The shape, with a tangible nod towards classical sculpture, serves as canvas for the process. Drawing inspiration from seashells and their periostracum, the name emphasizes the unique patina on each object's body.
