Each of its six sides carries a single group of concentric rings pressed into the surface and drawn out into tall ovals inside a plain flat border, and the top carries rings that wind into a slow swirl. The blue is a clear mid cobalt, deeper along the six upright arrises where the eye passes through more material and paler in the middle of each face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOval Ripples on Six Sides and a Swirl on Top\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe decision that makes this piece is that no face was left plain. Every side carries its own ripple group, and because the resin is translucent the rings on the far sides show faintly through the near ones, so the stool gives overlapping patterns at different depths from any angle, and moving the head shifts one against the other. On the top the rings tighten into a swirl, and their ridges catch a fine bright line where they turn. On the sides the rings are shallow enough that a hand feels them only faintly. The six upright arrises each hold a darker line of blue that frames the faces like the leading in a window. Because it is hollow, the stool is a good deal lighter than a solid casting would be. A single stool is supplied at this price, and each one is ordered and priced on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLow and compact, it serves as a stool or a side piece: a perch at a coffee table, a stand for a plant, or a step. The top is flat and level and takes a tray. Its best position is where light can come through it from one side, since the whole body then lights up and the rings on the far faces read through the near ones. On a pale floor the cobalt is at its strongest. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Ring Pattern, the Wall, and How Many Faces Carry It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost pieces are standard and take 3–4 weeks; a bespoke commission takes 5–6. The ring pattern is the first choice: these tall oval groups with a swirl on the top, a single round ripple centred on each face, or smooth faces all round. How many faces carry it is the second, and leaving some faces plain lets the patterned ones read more strongly. The hollow wall can be cast heavier for a stool that feels more solid, or the whole form cast solid at a considerable weight. Cobalt can also be a green, an amber or a smoke grey. Plan and height follow whatever figures you send. It travels in one crate, arrives finished, and one person can carry it easily.
