AMAZING ARTS OF NAILS AND TOOTHPICKS

A bed of nails conjures mental images of extreme asceticism, potential pain and times past. This bench of nails inverts that association with a smooth, curved and rippled surface for comfortable seating and an extremely contemporary look that shifts and changes from each angle of view.The underlying wood is cut, smoothed and scorched to fade it to the background while the nails on top are  ground down to reveal their inner silver shine and stand out visually against the dark wooden surface below.
