Description
Fruit Loop is a unique hand crafted fruit bowl made from a single piece of free flowing steel wire by British design duo Black + Blum.
Designing the loop range was very different to other design projects. The ever-changing radius is inspired by the ‘Fibonacci Curve’ that is seen throughout nature and looks balanced and in proportion to the human eye.
The process starts with a piece a straight wire bent by hand until the form is perfect. It’s very difficult to design on a computer, and is much more of a sculptural hands on approach to design. Once the perfect shape is found, the challenge is then trying to replicate it because the shapes have an ever-changing radius that often bend back on themselves, it is not possible to use an automated wire bending machine.
Everything is done by hand by a skilled wire bending company who use custom made mandrels to hand bend the wire to shape. The mandrels are like sculptures and the wire goes through five different ones to make the desired shape.
MODERN BOWL DESIGN: A gorgeous spin on the traditional fruit bowl. Minimalistic steel wires are intertwined to form a continuously overlapping loop that firmly holds all types of fruit.
QUALITY MATERIAL: The fruit basket holder is made from durable, high quality chromed stainless steel.
HANDCRAFTED: An avant-garde fruit bowl handmade from a single piece of free-flowing steel wire.
INSPIRED BY NATURE: The ever changing radius is inspired by the Fibonacci Curve that is seen throughout nature bringing balance and proportion to the human eye.
CleaUNIQUE DECORATION: It will add a stunning piece of sculpture to any kitchen, dining room or loungen with a damp cloth.
