All auctions / Furniture, Design & Mirrors / Michael Elkan - Jewellery box - handcrafted jewelry box /...


An absolute masterpiece of organic design! For sale is a beautiful, handcrafted woodworking casket made from noble root wood (likely Maple Burl). The design embodies the unmistakable style of the well-known American wood artist Michael Elkan (Michael Elkan Studio), whose works from the 1980s and 1990s are world-renowned for their organic design. The Highlights: Fascinating contrast: The top of the lid is perfectly mirror-smooth sanded, showcasing the stunning, wild grain of the wood to perfection. Natural, untamed live edge: The side and front panels display the completely pristine, gnarly outer bark/growth form of the root wood. Invisible closure: The lid has been cut and fitted with such precision from the wooden block that it follows the natural growth form millimeter-perfectly. In the closed state, the box appears as a single, massive piece of natural art. Versatile use: Perfect as an elegant jewelry box, for storing business cards, small collectibles, or simply as a sculptural design object for lovers of Mid-Century Modern and Organic Modern Design.
