About Moshabak Eraztuna

Moshabak Persiako etxe zaharren sare-lattice bidezko pantailetan inspiratutako eraztun bat da. Eraztuna hatzean jantzita eta argira begira jarrita erabiltzen da, eta horrela, marrazki irekiak itzalak eta ereduak sortzen ditu eskuaren gainean. Forma orekatua eta pisu arina du. Bi aldeetako arku ergonomikoek ondoko hatzen aurka atseden hartzen dute erosotasunerako. Diseinua hiru dimentsioko software batean modelatu zen, argizarian inprimatu eta 18 kilateko urrezko horian fundituta, akabera distiratsu ispilu-itxurakoarekin. Urre gorriz eta zilarrez egindako bertsioak ere ekoizten dira.
