Decor "Fusion"

Sale price$0.00

The "Fusione" decorative sculpture embodies the key idea of the "LITHIFICATION" collection – the exploration of natural stone forms and their harmonious interaction.

The composition consists of two separate elements, symbolizing fusion and unity. Both elements have organic, asymmetrical shapes, resembling natural stones. Their outlines flow smoothly into each other, creating the impression that they have grown together. One element seems to envelop the other, emphasizing their interdependence and unity. This decor embodies the idea of "fusion", where two separate entities become one whole. It symbolizes the harmony and balance that arise as a result of interaction and mutual understanding.

A special feature of the decor is that it does not simply reflect the external similarity of the stones, but also emphasizes their inner essence. The shapes of the elements hint at the voids and internal structures of the stones, which is a characteristic feature of the "LITHIFICATION" collection..

Lithification

LITHIFICATION by Anna Manako for Davani Home is a capsule collection of seven sculptural pieces that explore the metaphor of human connection through stone. Inspired by the natural process of rock formation, the collection reflects values of honesty, resilience, and trust - fundamentals of lasting relationships. Each asymmetrical form embodies the balance between individuality and unity, inviting reflection on how openness and vulnerability solidify unbreakable bonds over time.
