Datasheet leaves, fruits and fibres

Architonic-ID:  5000487
 
The leaves, fruits and fibres in our surfaces are diverse in origin. We have selected them either because they are a cultivated crop with declining markets, like kapok and tobacco, or they are unused parts of a food crop, like banana bark or coco shells. We gather, sort and clean the raw materials. They are stripped, cut or pressed to provide a flat surface for inlay. Each piece is inlaid and laminated by hand. The pieces are often of uneven thickness and veins or dense fibres require careful lamination. The colour variation can be extensive within a piece, for example in banana bark or abaca; by season, as with tobacco leaves, or with plant age, as with gugo. This is part of the natural beauty and individuality of each piece.
