Ross Thompson — 'Cocktail Cabinet', 2024

$30,000

'Cocktail Cabinet' from Ross Thompson tells the story of finding a place of belonging to continue life's  great journey.

 
Made with a high degree of difficulty, Ross has reworked traditional forms by embracing materiality and form with a strong reference to art deco styling. All wood grains in this 'Coctail Cabinet' have been carefully selected and book matched to complement the curve and overall design of the work, with the contrast of the Birds Eye maple, a particular favourite of the incredibly skilled cabinet maker.

Ross Thompson is a fine furniture designer and maker based in Geelong (Djilang). Ross works references early to mid twentieth century design ideals, blending traditional woodcraft technique with considered and elegant design. With a love of rare and exotic timber veneers, his focus is how to avoid solely relying on the beauty of the timber to carry the beauty of the piece, but to understand how it can help inform and elevate the work when paired with proportion, styling and woodcraft. Beginning his business in 2017, Ross has grown his practice steadily to now be collaborating with the countries best interior designers and stylists, in addition to a broad and diverse array of private and commercial clients and commissions.
