I am a Reclaimed Blue Folded Rim Plate. No basketballs around this rim please. Shatter-proof glass is not my main feature, but a reclaimed blue backboard certainly is.
Curator's Notes
We are often excitedly unpacking works as soon as they are delivered to us from an artisan. Every once in a while, a piece is unboxed that leaves the whole team gasping in awe. This is one of those pieces. The plate's vast surface showcases the variety of tonal range and saturation of the Reclaimed Blue process wonderfully, and the soft rounded rim punctuates the spectacular blues.
