Nice piece with a little more refinement… And how do you open it?

I love it! So simple and beautiful.

Interesting use of the raw concrete against the beauty of the wood. Like the juxtaposition of the two materials. Would be good for an office environment, not sure many clients wouldn’t choose it for their home.

Wonder how heavy it is?

@AMR Design – by pushing?
Lovely combination of materials.

Amazing use of basic, economic, materials that open many avenues of design using imagination and learned skills. Would be messy but looks like so worth the effort.

Beautiful piece. Shipping will cost approximately: beep boop beep boop beep – - – $2000. lol..

Very industrial. How do you open it? Looks heavy.

Beautiful. There’s not enough quality concrete furnishings.

At least my dogs won’t destroy this chewing on it.

This piece was definitely one of my favourites.

The unforunate thing is that I had to jamb my chubby fingers into the slits to open it. A nice handle detail, perhas integrated, would of been perfect.

push to open technology has come a long way & this would be a great place for it. Nice piece
