The Mock series is an encapsulation of the artist's work with the aesthetic range of Wearstler joined together. It has three pieces in total including a cocktail table, a bench, and a side table. All of these have a [sculptural design language](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archetypes) with a rich surface texture. To create the designs, it starts with a [steel base foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/facet-collection). It is then carefully heated to 600 degrees Fahrenheit so that it is able to be molten at the same temperature and altered using a large torch and metal rods to create the finishing touches.
