Virtu – Scrinium

Writing desk ‘Scinium’ is the first furniture piece from our new series ‘Virtu’. This series arose from the previous project ‘Excavations’, which shows a unique collection of treasures, inspired by archeological excavations. Leaving the narrative element of ‘Excavations’ behind, we now focus on a series of furniture, in which users can display their own collection. ‘Virtu’ gives the user the ability to combine functions such as storage and showing ones precious things, as also seen in this first piece; working space and storing your desk utensils at one side of the desk, and showing your precious things on the other side. With its leather top, ‘Scrinium’ refers to antique writing desks.

Materials: walnut, powder coated steel, copper plated steel, leather

Limited edition of 3 + 1 prototype + 1 A.P.
‘Scrinium’ is exclusively available through Priveekollektie Comtemporary Art | Design
