The Steel

316L marine-grade stainless steel, uncoated. Cut by fiber laser, TIG welded in the workshop. The hull is one piece of metal that will never rust.

The Leather

Epsom calfskin in bordeaux, the only colour on the piece. Stitched on an industrial machine, finished by hand, riveted to the steel.

The mast and boom extend the lines of the hull. The clasp and padlock are made from plated metal alloys, the only plated accessories of the sculpture.

What you receive

It arrives closed.

The box

Two levels.

The upper tray carries everything that travels with the piece. The lower tray carries the piece.

I · The certificate

Proof, framed.

Numbered and signed by hand, framed in A4. Ready for the wall next to the piece.

II · The gloves

A mirror keeps no secrets.

One fingerprint shows. Wear them every time you touch the steel.

III · The cloth

The only thing that touches the mirror.

Microfibre, 14 by 14 centimetres. Nothing else, ever.

IV · The wall mount

On its base, or on the wall.

A steel bracket made for this hull. Grace stands on a console or floats on a wall.

V · The film

Watch your piece being made.

Filmed, directed and edited entirely by Arcanis, this film follows your sculpture from raw 316L steel to the final polish. It accompanies the work on a dedicated video tablet, inside its presentation box.
