Among his most remarkable creations, discover his tripod stools and slag stools. These pieces, combining simplicity and functionality, are carefully crafted from local woods such as oak, pear or elm. Their sleek design and robust structure make them both practical and elegant objects, perfect for bringing a handcrafted and contemporary touch to your interior. In his Parisian workshop, Antonis works with sustainable materials, often reusing scraps of wood to give the material a second life. Each piece is carefully finished with walnut oil, guaranteeing exceptional longevity and a beautiful patina over time.
In addition to its stools, you can discover the game "5 alive", a set of five mini spinning tops in turned wood, made of precious woods such as ash, walnut, zelcova, pear and ebony. This fun game is presented in a turned wooden case, closed with a cork stopper, and combines tradition and modernity with great subtlety.
Another key piece is the "nothing box", a simple yet elegant object made of turned wood that embodies Antonis' spirit of minimalism and functionality. Since 2002, Antonis has shared his passion and expertise at Paris Ateliers, where he teaches the art of woodturning, the reuse of materials and the importance of sustainable craftsmanship. Each object he creates is both a practical and aesthetic work, a tribute to traditional craftsmanship and the natural beauty of wood. Come and discover his creations at La Maison de Commerce, where each piece - whether it's the stools, the "5 alive" game, or the "nothing box" - brings a touch of authenticity, refinement and durability to your interior. By choosing a work by Antonis Cardew, you are investing in a unique object, made to last.
