Hi everyone, this is Kent from Toro Studio. Today, I would love to show you our latest project, the Snake60 Fossil Edition.

Introducing Fossil.
Inspired by a snake trapped in amber, Fossil feels discovered, not made. Snake is reimagined as a skeleton trapped in a brown patina brass weight, giving the feeling of earth and soil. The skeleton is encased in amber PEI (Ultem), preserved like a fossil.
