PAINHO SHELF by Alan Louis

Painho Shelf, Alan Louis.

The Painho Shelf evokes a rock shaped by the elements, with gentle curves and an organic form that add a sculptural, poetic touch to any space.

Suspended on the wall like a blank canvas, this piece enhances the objects it showcases.

Each shelf is unique, handcrafted from dense chamotte stoneware - clay embedded with grains of sand - and fired multiple times at temperatures between 900 and 1400 degrees. This process involves meticulous assembly, modeling, sculpting, and various firings that bring the piece to life.

Each Painho Shelf is signed and numbered.

Handcrafted in Portugal.
