There is a raw beauty to the Walnut Photo Prism that negates its polished and stained surface. Each piece has been expertly cut, sanded and finished into a rock-like shape that is nothing like the original state the piece of wood arrived in, but the Walnut Photo Prism holds onto its roots with an organic, natural design.
Handmade by Ilona Fiddy of In Love With Excellence, a Toronto-based multidisciplinary artist and designer, each Walnut Photo Prism is one-of-a-kind. Crafted out of re-purposed or salvaged wood and treated with natural linseed, coconut oils and beeswax, it boasts strategic slots that can hold pictures or even business cards. The Walnut Photo Prism is both sculptural and functional.
