UNIQUE PIECE

 
 

An exceptional sculptural COLD COFFEE maker, handcrafted of volcanic stone from the Popocatépetl Volcano in Mexico and made with ash and coffee wood. This piece allows for a true ceremonial coffee preparing procedure. It takes brewing coffee to a ceremonial and alchemistic level. It balances acidity out and removes excess bitterness and alters the quality of even the best quality coffees. The ability and property of the volcanic stone are to be a filter. The water and then the coffee will be filtered through the stone. The coffee will need some hours to find its way through the stone and is collected drop by drop in the coffee deposit. Every droplet of the essence becomes a most precious elixir. The object is also conceived as a sculpture, a sculpture for cooking or brewing your beloved drink. The beauty and mysteriousness of the piece stimulate the senses, as does the coffee that is extracted. An object for all senses.
