Description
ASTILBE is an original textile sculpture depicting a slender cat with an elongated silhouette and striking golden eyes. Its solemn, almost ceremonial bearing and golden-toned attire create a mysterious character that seems to emerge from a world somewhere between the sacred, the theatrical and the imaginary.
The piece is crafted from 19th-century French ecclesiastical vestment fabric and antique fur, materials steeped in history that lend the sculpture an extraordinary richness of texture and nuance. The aged gold tones, the vivid red detail around the neck and the delicate ornamental elements enhance its sophisticated, decadent character.
A one-of-a-kind piece, ASTILBE is mounted on wood and handcrafted using staining and ageing processes. Wear, irregularities and traces of time are an integral part of the work’s beauty, reinforcing its truly unique character.
With its imposing silhouette and evocative aesthetic, ASTILBE has an almost totemic presence. A singular sculpture for collectors and lovers of artist-made pieces, capable of bringing mystery, history and a powerful personality to any interior.
