This compact steel object is imagined as a recovered relic from an unknown world. A fragment of material culture left behind by an extinct or vanished civilization, preserved through history.
Constructed from pure layered steel plates and aligned along a single axis, the form suggests something once functional, once intentional. Its geometry feels engineered rather than decorative, as if it served a purpose that can no longer be verified. What remains is mass, balance, and presence.
The object reads like an archaeological find scaled for the present. A piece you might expect behind glass in a future exposition, now resting on a desk or shelf. It invites interpretation without explanation. Tool, symbol, component, or relic. The meaning is unresolved.
Designed as a tabletop object, it works equally as a conversation piece, a collectible object, or a quiet anchor within a space. It belongs to those drawn to material honesty, science fiction worlds, and objects that feel discovered rather than designed.
