The Revenant 003

What time took, we reclaimed.

CommissionedLimited designOn application
The Revenant: a charred-black Jones Beale upright with veins of molten copper resin glowing through its panels, in a dark library

Exposed Beale timber stained near-black and cut with resin channels lit from within.

Revenant keeps the original Beale timber and lets it show its age. The cabinet is charred and stained near-black, then cut with veins of copper-lit resin that run across the panels and down the sides, so the piano appears to smoulder from within. Edges are worn back to the timber and the hardware is aged brass.

Revenant is a limited design. Each build is numbered and finished individually, so no two are the same.
