This urn is handcrafted from olive and fossilised oak wood. Besides the beautiful colour effects naturally given by this wood, the choice of wood is connected to the rich symbolism of olive and bog oak. Olive represents longevity, God's mercy and peace, while the thousands of years old bog oak signifies death, hope and resurrection. The sketch was drawn instantly, as a single design version with practically no alterations, using traditional wood turning techniques.

This table is part of an exploration of objects shaped using traditional turning technologies, but differently - such as with a rotate programme command - to achieve new, unexpected results and forms. The aim was to achieve an authentic Croatian design that accepts its own tradition, culture and collective memory, aware of its own identity without referring to dominant foreign trends and narratives in design.
