Story of the piece
Orange Blossom Box
Wood reveals what time cannot erase.
There is an inborn delicacy in its pure white, in its scent that lingers over time. The orange blossom is innocent, and it makes us believe. In life's small joys, in subtle gestures. In candid sweetness.
Jacky Cavallari trained at the École Boulle and is today one of the few living masters of marquetry - the art that gives wood its colour, texture and life. With a precision that time does not rush.
For this smoked oak panel, the artisan chose four natural and dyed woods, such as limba (fraké), white-dyed bird's-eye maple, light guava wood and ipê, to bring the orange blossom to life. Layer upon layer, using the same traditional marquetry technique employed in the 18th century.
A panel to remind us of what we want to believe in.
