Working under Art & Assembly for artist Mehdi Dakhli, I fabricated the Almadies Console.
The final piece is cast bronze with a dark patina and Rosso Levanto marble.

In a similar process to the Sidi Bou Chair, the legs were sculpted and sprayed for consistent texture for the bronze casting.
Once the slab of marble arrived, I made a template to route out of the ends of the table.
Mock up of half of the table. These parts were then sent out to be cast in bronze. Each piece will be cast twice to make the full table.

The bronze was then fitted to the marble slab, filled in, and retextured.
The patina was added, and after a rinse, the wax was applied.
