The Chaflan Console Table is created using silver and nickel-plated metal and natural marble-top, with the majority of the console’s facade being treated with the anthracite dye. Forged and soldered, the piece is assembled from sculptural rectangular shapes with the application of highly textural hand-embossed figuring and high gloss polish. The Chaflan Console Table represents geometry and angularity of the Cubist movement, implying radical clarity by the use of smooth lines and pure surfaces.
CUSPID COLLECTION
The Cuspid Collection is one of the earliest collections designed by Juan and Paloma Garrido. Developed at the early stages of the new era of GARRIDO workshop, the collection strongly references the craft of silversmiths. It showcases the superlative skill of GARRIDO as masters of silver, artfully displaying numerous traditional techniques rarely used these days. The collection experiments with and challenges the technical skills of soldering, cold-bending, forging, polishing and embossing. Using geometrical shapes and angularity, the collection alludes to Cubism, forming a study of three dimensionality through volume and line. Similarly to Cubism the Cuspid Collection uses broken up forms and creates an illusion of presenting a multitude of viewpoints in a greater context.
