For this Ramadan season, Studio Nada Debs is introducing a selection of centre pieces whereby shaped forms are lined with the craft of marquetry and staggered to evoke a sense of depth and motion.
The subtle application of distinct marquetry patterns and colors animate the pieces and awaken our visual senses as we attend the call to feast.
“As craft custodians, we safe-guard a legacy by making it relevant to future generations through a signature design approach”
The Transcendence Bowls collection of center pieces are available in four shapes: Oasis, Rectangular, Portal and Circular. They are available in solid walnut wood, oak wood, and various stained colours.
