Specimen 01

This sculptural side table was inspired by the colours and patterns of butterfly wings and the shape of beetles. The cylindrical legs evoke the joints of insects, while the colour and texture of the hand-assembled leather body contrasts with the wooden legs. The leather body is blue, pale yellow and green, while stripes of the same tones feature on the legs.
