Details
The Walrus shape originally appeared in the W.O. Larsen Catalogue back in the 1960s as a Danish reinterpretation of the classic French Cutty shape. We suspect the shape was birthed more from a desire to capture elegant form rather than another means of showcasing proportional grain. Whatever the case, Jesse took his cues from the very first artist to make the shape, Sven Knudsen - the older brother of the very famous Teddy Knudsen, and sought function, form, and a very high contrasting grain with spectacular results (it sits in two positions!). This is an heirloom piece destined to be treasured for generations.
