Description

It would be futile to deny that the ductility of fine pewter isn’t considered a drawback, but it is this same inherent characteristic of the alloy that grants pewter its most treasured qualities; its ability to reproduce exquisite detail, its beautifully subdued patina when aged, its soft warmth when compared to cold sterility of aluminium, steel or silver. Mallea takes advantage of this commonly perceived weakness in tandem with traditional production methods, punctuating forms influenced by early Scandinavian industrial design with a series of decorative controlled folds. With each item’s series of indentations shaped individually, no two pieces are alike.
