Marco Panconesi Launches Sculptural Home Objects Collection

Marco Panconesi launched his "CONVERSATION PIECE" collection this week, translating the emotional and symbolic qualities of jewelry design into sculptural home objects. The collection aims to imbue spatial environments with the spiritual energy of stones and metals, creating pieces that feel animated and invite dialogue between observation and imagination. This new line positions itself at the intersection of art, design, and ritual, offering functional yet poetic works.

Key pieces in the "CONVERSATION PIECE" collection include the Ascolto Candelabra, a totem-like structure featuring balanced mahogany obsidian, calcite, and jasper. The Ascolto Vases are cylindrical metal forms adorned with gemstones that radiate outwards. Additionally, the Ascolto Clocks, available with metal or canvas bases, reimagine timekeeping by suspending stones as markers, utilizing light and reflection to create sensory experiences.

Each object in the collection is meticulously crafted in Germany and Italy, utilizing materials such as stainless steel, tin, and canvas, alongside a variety of gemstones including tiger's eye and pyrite. These materials are chosen to imbue the objects with a symbolic charge comparable to fine jewelry, but designed for inhabitation within a space. The collection emphasizes materiality and craftsmanship, aiming to create collectible design objects.

The "CONVERSATION PIECE" collection is available with prices ranging from €1,300 EUR (approximately $1,486 USD) for the Ascolto Canvas Clock up to €4,900 EUR (approximately $5,599 USD). Further details regarding availability can be found on Panconesi's official website.
