Coffee table, handcrafted by Goëry Lalloz, also known as GL ébénisterie, a craftsman located in La Biolle, Savoie. Artistic Explanation: "On the golden sand of the ash tree, the sea has receded. But it has left behind a dark, viscous, hypnotic trace. An oil spill, frozen in the wood, like a memory impossible to erase. Oil Spill is not just a piece of furniture: it is a scar transformed into a work of art. Its marquetry lines, black and fluid, evoke the oil slicks that stretch across the beaches after the disaster. They glide, they slip, they wound the light—but their unsettling beauty draws the eye, as disaster always does when it is transfigured by art. Made of white ash and green ebony (or zirconia), this unique piece questions our relationship with nature. Beneath its soft and serene forms, it carries the memory of a global tragedy—that of humankind polluting what it loves. Oil Spill invites contemplation as much than to consciousness. Raw beauty, wounded elegance, a silent plea to no longer look away. Materials: white ash, green ebony, or zirconia. Technique: contemporary marquetry – unique piece. Concept: beauty in wounds, art as a witness to life. This coffee table is distinguished by its graphic interplay of dark, fluid lines. The contrast between the green ebony and the natural ash underscores the purity of the design and highlights the nobility of the selected woods. The softened curves of the angles and the delicately shaped edges create a sense of fluidity and balance, while the precision of the inlays reveals the artisan's technical mastery. Each piece from the GL Ébénisterie workshop is unique, designed and handcrafted. “Marée Noire 1/1” will never be reproduced exactly, guaranteeing its exclusivity and collector's value.
