OBJ-02 Coaster

$150
Description

Inspired by Japan’s long standing traditions of serving tea and the ceremonies that surround it, the OBJ-02 coasters are the perfect accompaniment to the OBJ-01 tea tray.    


Following the visual language of its larger sibling, each coaster is milled from a single piece of aluminum and sits on two feet, raising it just enough for a pleasant shadow line. On the underside, the milling marks are intentionally left visible, as to showcase the fabrication methods used to produce this object. 


Comes in a set of two. 


Finish: Hand brushed and waxed.


Notes: The wax finish hardens for a durable top coat, however it can be worn through if cleaned improperly: to clean, rinse with water and buff dry with a clean cloth, do not scrub with an abrasive sponge, do not use a stripping soap. Aluminum is a soft metal, the surfaces will scratch over time. This patina adds to the items character.   


Each coaster set is made to order, lead time: 2-3 weeks

studio orlando pippig

Orlando Pippig is a self taught furniture / object designer currently based in Southern California. For the last 8 years, he’s been designing and fabricating high end furniture, centered around solid wood and metal. In 2020 he opened his own studio. His personal designs are rooted in visual simplicity that’s driven by form, with a strong focus on highlighting specific materials. Drawing inspiration from many sources; nature, sculpture, industrial environments, architecture, he finds ways to mesh these separate sources into singular expressions. His work is influenced by systematic iteration, working individual concepts into multiple designs to create a linear progression. The design process favors an engineering approach, the goal of fully understanding connection methods and how to best implement. These thinking patterns result in furniture that holds superior strength and a genuine form.
