Design Miami 2009: Tidal Ossuary by Julia Lohmann and Gero Grundmann

Launched on the occasion of Design Miami 2009, 'Tidal Ossuary' continues Lohmann and Grundmann's investigations into the contradictions inherent in our relationship to animals as a material source. The new series of covetable vessels have been made from found animal bones, collected on the banks of London's River Thames. Lohmann and Grundmann's sensitive handling of the materials and exquisite attention to detail have restored the discarded bones into beautiful objects of use and worth.
