The Memory of Motion
Carved Wooden Hand Form, Dark Finish, Set of 2
About the Product
A pair of carved wooden hands, simple in form and shaped entirely by the maker's tools. Originally carved as molds for gloves, the wood has worn unevenly with time and handling, and its patina has deepened to a warm, dark tone. Small cracks, joints and softened edges remain visible.
Set side by side, they have a quiet, almost sculptural presence in contemporary spaces. Two hands, held still.
Each pair is one of a kind. Size, colour and markings vary from pair to pair. Photographs are close, but the pieces may look slightly different in person and from different angles. Cracks, joints and softened edges are part of the original pieces and add to the beauty of it.
About the Chapter
From The Memory of Motion, Origin & Form's first collection.
This piece has already made a journey. Long before it reached you, it moved: carried, wheeled, passed from hand to hand. It carries decades in its grain and the wear of the roads behind it.
You're not buying an object. You're buying the moment it stopped moving.
