Bow is a series of trays and sculptural table centerpieces made in marble that explore the use of small formal gestures in geometry to create a playful dynamic in which the pieces are seemingly impossible to balance, yet stand perfectly on their own. These trays were conceived from an efficiency point of view and use the easiest machining processes.
