Description
Pol Quadens (born 1960) Blade Black Console Chocolate-black patinated steel Limited edition of 8 pieces + 4 artist’s proofs Signed H95 W200 D30 cm Self-taught, Pol Quadens single-handedly embodies the uniqueness of contemporary Belgian design. Trained in the arts in Brussels, where his encounter with the critic Pierre Sterckx proved decisive, he truly cut his teeth in a bodywork workshop, bending and shaping sheet metal on a daily basis. It was this experience that enabled him to master techniques and materials, and to hone his eye for the fine, undulating lines that would become his signature. In 1995, his discovery of carbon fibre opened up new horizons: he created the C06 chair, then the lightest in the world, which was immediately acquired by major international museum collections. His pieces are regularly exhibited by design galleries in Europe and the United States, and offered at auction houses. Working on limited editions from his Brussels studio, Quadens creates in close collaboration with master craftsmen, making each piece as much an object of craftsmanship as of formal innovation. With the limited edition of the Blade console table in stainless steel now fully produced, this new artistic direction turns to raw, acid-patinated steel, finished with jade oil. The result is very dark, with shifting hues and depths — a living, almost mineral surface that evolves with the light. With a span of 210 cm and a depth reduced to 30 cm, the Blade Black combines architectural presence with radical simplicity. Limited edition of 8 + 4 artist’s proofs.
