Description

Kar, container, is made out of recycled aluminium. Due to the inherent quality of the material it can be used outdoors as well as indoor. It works very well as a flowerpot, where the geometrical shape and deep dark colour enhances the natural beauty of the organic plant. As such it suits both private gardens and public spaces. Kar is handmade in a small family business in Iceland, where 3rd generation of experts keep on mastering the age-old method of sand casting. It is a time consuming but fascinating process, where red hot metal is poured into sand molds.
