Design Year: 2013
Dimensions: steel frame with either marble, engineered stone or wood
Materials: Studio Produced

Third Eye Vessels are simple 3 sided boxes held in a steel stand so that the corner is pointing down. The shape functions like an Irish brick hod where gravity assists in organizing books at 90 degrees. Although in production the stone pieces are adhered to one another and to the steel stand, with the assistance of gravity, the lapped configuration of the stone sides is such that when the last stone is inserted the composition is stable without any adhesives.

Originally designed in 2013, the first generation of vessels were made in marble and engineered stone.
