Cornell Easel Frame: Copper

Desktop easel-style frame melded from copper, in various shapes and sizes

Description

Why We Love This

The brightness of copper gives this frame a unique presence on a desk or tabletop. We love how the antique quality of the metal has an ancient aura, yet the spare design makes it feel modern, whether used it for a photo or a four-leaf clover.

Story

Copper was one of the first metals used by our early ancestors. Because It’s malleable and holds a sharp edge, they discovered that copper could be fashioned into tools, ornaments and weapons more easily than stone. Coppersmiths were believed to have powers as shamans and priests because of their ability to produce metal from ore. Today, copper still plays a role in many metaphysical practices, as It’s thought to have spiritual and physical healing powers. It’s also easily recycled; nearly 90% of available scrap is reclaimed and repurposed. This Cornell Easel Frame from HomArt connects the past to the present.

About the Maker

Serenity, simplicity, and warmthóthese qualities resonate throughout HomArt’s collection of objects and furnishings. Sustainability is also at the heart of the California company’s approach to decor. Some of its one-of-a-kind products are discovered on antiquing trips around the world, at Indian souks, Asian bazaars and European flea markets. Others are crafted from recycled materials by artists who transform abandoned materials into new decorative objects with a timeless charm.
