Peatland | Console
Console tables from Alcarol, Designed by Andrea Forti, Eleonora Dal Farra
Product description
Peatland Console is made of OAK WOOD planks recovered in a small Alpine peat (dating back to the the fifth century before Christ), preserved in EXTRACLEAR RESIN resembling the peat water that has conserved them for millennia.
The new alcarol's invisible corner joining ensures the continuity of both material, without visible separations between horizontal and vertical planes, like a single bent piece.
The natural wood surface is not covered by resin on the section planes since alcarol always use a selective wood coating with a matt natural effect.
135 x 35 x H 90 cm / Customizable size, design and finishes.

Concept
For the Peatland Collection alcarol recovered some rare and unusual black trunks of Oak trees lain in a small Alpine peat. The radiocarbon dating has revealed their age: the fifth century before Christ.
Deprived of oxygen, the buried wood undergoes the millennia-long process of fossilization. The peat protects the wood from normal decay, increasing its hardness and gradually giving it a distinct dark brown to almost black color.
alcarol selects the most suitable trunks and cut the pieces preserving the natural eroded outer surface. Then, the innovative resin process is used to emphasize this precious wood with transparent resin volumes, resembling the peat water that has conserved them for millennia.
The natural wood surface it’s not covered by resin on the section planes, so you can touch the warm organic vibrancy of such an ancient material.
