Creators of Objects, Formation Side Table, CA, 2025

The Formations Side Table in deep grey agate is a sculptural exploration of material, surface, and illusion. Inspired by both terrestrial geology and imagined, otherworldly landscapes, the work evokes a suspended terrain. Its tabletop resembling a frozen moment of melting icicles or stalactites captured in translucent resin.

The tabletop is cast in richly tinted deep grey agate resin, its polished surface revealing a dramatic, textured underside that appears to shift and recede with changes in light. This interplay between opacity and translucence creates a sense of depth and movement, transforming the tabletop into a vivid, almost topographic field. Subtle variations in tone and saturation heighten the impression of a surreal, mineral-rich landscape suspended in time.

The resin top is paired with salvaged steel tubing, carefully refurbished and finished to form a stable, architectural base. A precision-routed groove allows the tabletop to nest seamlessly into the steel structure, reinforcing the dialogue between organic form and industrial material.

At once functional and atmospheric, the Formations Side Table occupies a space between furniture and sculptural objectโ€”an invitation to engage with surface, light, and material as an immersive experience.
