Designers Ami Drach and Dov Ganchrow teamed up to create a beautiful tribute to the tools of prehistoric eras with these stunning contemporary hand axes featured in a collection fittingly titled, 'Man Made.'
The 'Man Made' collection features a series of various tool artifacts that have been given a contemporary twist. The blades of the axes and hammers have all been made to look like traditionally carved rocks dating back to the stone age. The blades have a distinctly worn and rusted look. The handles of the antiquated tools have been given a modern twist with 3D-printed white handles that cleverly encircle the prehistoric-looking rock blades. The juxtaposition of a plastic-looking material with a natural rock one creates a striking visual.
