Description
The Langkawi Eclipse, designed by acclaimed Belgian designer Stefan Schöning, celebrates the artistry and tradition of mask-making. Part of the evocative Langkawi collection, this decorative mask honours the rich heritage of Langkawi, a Malaysian island known for its remarkable woodcarving and skilled hardwood craftsmanship.
Inspired by Langkawi’s talented woodcarvers and the beauty of their materials, the Langkawi Eclipse is more than just a mask; it’s a piece of art that embodies Schöning’s minimalist design philosophy. It masterfully combines symmetry and subtle asymmetry, creating a sense of rhythm and movement. Each curve and contour is meticulously shaped, resulting in an aesthetic that balances simplicity with sophistication.
The masks in the Langkawi collection echo Schöning’s minimalist approach, offering a modern interpretation of traditional mask-making. The Langkawi Eclipse stands as a tribute to this timeless craft, blending age-old techniques with contemporary design. Alongside the Eclipse, the collection features four other distinct designs—Elephant, Offspring, Sunrise, and Toucan—each offering a unique expression of this global art form.
Ideal for bringing cultural depth and modern refinement to your space, the Langkawi Eclipse serves as a distinctive focal point. It is a testament to how traditional craftsmanship can be reimagined for the present day, offering a piece that resonates with both history and contemporary style.
