Handcrafted in Colombia using traditional techniques, the piece is formed from a tightly coiled base of Werregue palm fiber sourced from the Chocó rainforest and wrapped in fine copper wire, creating a luminous surface that softly reflects light.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.8;color:#6B4F3A;margin:0 0 24px\"\u003e\nMaster artisan Plinio Opua applies traditional Wounaan coiling methods with exceptional precision, building the form gradually while wrapping copper wire in continuous, controlled motion. This technique creates a refined tension between structure and surface, where the organic palm fiber core is enhanced by the metallic sheen of copper.
