Original artwork description:

The “Keal & Seraphine” marquetry art piece by Troy Hyde is a striking exploration of form and material, evoking the quiet intimacy of a moment shared. The flowing curves suggest two figures in connection, their forms converging yet distinct, offering a balance between connection and individuality. Crafted with the golden warmth of American Oak, the cool, muted tones of Grey Oak, and the sleek, modern accents of Aluminium, this artwork embodies a harmony of contrasts, both visual and emotional.

Marquetry, the art of inlaying wood veneers into refined compositions, is applied with precision in “Keal & Seraphine.” Each piece is thoughtfully cut and assembled to emphasise the interplay of light and shadow across the design’s flowing lines. A shellac finish enhances the depth and texture of the materials, while a light wax polish provides a smooth, tactile surface. The composition encourages contemplation, inviting viewers to engage with its nuanced forms and layered meanings.

Each marquetry piece by Troy Hyde is a one-of-a-kind creation, complete with a signed and stamped certificate of authenticity. Presented within a minimalist lime wood frame, “Keal & Seraphine” achieves a floating effect that enhances its modern aesthetic. The frame’s natural grain complements the warmth and elegance of the materials, while the premium presentation box ensures it is ready to be gifted or displayed as part of a collection.
