The Sunrise sculpture offers handcrafted artistry with its anthropomorphic design carved from a single block of responsibly sourced teak. Its natural brown finish features mineral-rich oil varnish that enhances the wood grain, while the dynamic two-part construction creates striking visual rhythm. The mask-inspired form combines traditional woodcarving techniques with minimalistic styling, and the solid teak construction ensures lasting durability.
Belgian designer Stefan Schöning's 'Langkawi' decorative mask collection for Gardeco pays homage to the skilled woodcarvers of the Malaysian island by the same name. Five anthropomorphic designs are carved by hand from a single block of responsibly sourced Langkawi teak. The finished pieces, presented in natural brown, are varnished with a mineral-rich oil that further enhances the grain. The sculptures exude rhythm and play with symmetry, echoing Schöning's minimalistic style. The family of mask-inspired pieces includes 'Sunrise', a dynamic, graphic interplay between two parts, which — in the tradition of mask-making — speaks to what it means to be human.
