“To design these objects, we started from our passion for boulders and stones: we have a collection of them and we found an inspiring proof in the Seychelles’ granite rock formations: since, ‘Sesel’ is the local name of the Seychelles archipelago”, Bartoli Design says. “In ‘Sesel’ we thought we’d reinterpret the climbing grips and trasfer them in the home environment to serve another purpose. During the design stage, we created the original 1:1 models used for making the moulds for these little sculptures. The production process is all manual: brass is casted with the lost-wax technique then brushed and polished. Signs as brushings and small pits left by air bubbles are visible on the final objects, displaying the value of an entirely hand-made process.”
