HIGHLIGHTS:
Design File Ceri Price / Metalworker / Auckland
In the pages of Cuisine we often feature butchers and bakers, but not so often candlestick makers. So when Ceri Price’s sinuous creations caught our attention we were intrigued. Working in his garage in Auckland’s Point Chevalier, Ceri uses forging techniques, heating brass rods until malleable, winding them by hand to create spirals and curves whose delicacy belies the heat and power of the process.

Design File Frosie / Floral ice buckets, Auckland
