The Cuspid Oval Centrepiece is a marvellous eye-grabbing interior piece. Crafted by the skilled GARRIDO master silversmiths using the finest materials, that offer a flawless finish. One of the earliest designs developed in 1996 by Juan and Paloma Garrido in collaboration with their father - Damian Garrido, the founder of GARRIDO. The hand-constructed sculptural form is carefully forged in nickel-plated metal and polished by hand, to achieve a highly reflective surface.
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.
