Cochlea della Metamorfosi n.2 continues the exploration of transformation within the Cochlea Collection. The design develops the relationship between mineral mass and curved glass into a more continuous geometry, where the circular element replaces the open semi-curve of the previous form (Cochlea della Metamorfosi n.1).
The piece is composed of three independent elements that rest together without adhesives or permanent fixings:
– one hand-shaped borosilicate glass vessel, flame-worked and bent into an L-shaped form
– one mineral stone column supporting the glass
– one circular mineral stone element receiving the glass form
The glass is flame-worked and curved entirely by hand, without molds, and the mineral elements are gradually sculpted until a precise structural fit with the glass is achieved.
The stone draws inspiration from Roman mineral craftsmanship traditions and is developed through proprietary mineral-based processes, without cement or synthetic binders. Surface protection is achieved through layered natural oil treatments, manually applied and allowed to cure slowly over time. No synthetic sealants or industrial coatings are used.
