About Cornices Möbelkollektion

Cornices ist eine Möbelkollektion, die von den Dachtraufen der traditionellen chinesischen Architektur inspiriert ist. Zur Kollektion gehören ein Sitzmöbel, ein Blumenständer, eine Palastleuchte und ein Schrankregal. Jedes Stück ist aus nordamerikanischem Schwarznussbaum gefertigt und mit traditionellen Zapfenverbindungen gefügt. Die geschwungene Traufenform verleiht den Möbeln ein dreidimensionales und vielschichtiges Erscheinungsbild. Die Verbindungen werden durch Schneiden, Schnitzen und Polieren geformt und sorgen für Festigkeit und Langlebigkeit. Die Kollektion bringt die traditionelle chinesische Ästhetik in moderne Innenräume.
