About this collection

The work

The retro line pulls from 1960s and 1970s wall art - the era when sculptural metal moved from gallery to living room. Surfaces mix brass, copper, and steel for tonal contrast.

These pieces sit well next to vintage furniture, eclectic interiors, and contemporary rooms that want one warm focal point on the wall.

Questions

Frequently asked

What does 'retro' mean in this studio?
Pieces that draw on 1960s and 1970s wall-sculpture language - mixed brass, copper, and steel with warm tonal contrast - rendered as new originals rather than vintage reproductions.
Do retro pieces pair with vintage furniture?
Yes - that's where they sit best. Mid-century, eclectic, and warm contemporary interiors all give the surface room to read.
Are these originals or limited editions?
Originals. Every piece in the retro line is one-of-one, hand-welded in the studio.
