The Abyss-by CHRISTOPHER DUFFY
This 6-foot-long, 3-foot-wide glass-topped dining table, designed by furniture visionary Christopher Duffy, depicts varying levels of the seafloor. The Abyss, Duffy says, pays tribute to a corner of the Caribbean, though he refrains from divulging the exact place. “I appreciate the impact of where two realities meet,” he offers: “land and sky, sea and land.” With limited availability of just 25, the Abyss table requires three to four months to produce and is executed by five artisans.They use precision machinery to shape each slice of birch plywood. They then position the pieces of wood by hand before placing the small LED lights.
