Shingle cabinet has been clad with oxidized copper plates. Cladding that is not unlike tiles and shingles found in architecture or scales and feathers found in the natural world. I liked the practicality of these beautiful objects and wanted to reference them here. The patina finish on copper takes place when a chemical reaction occurs on the metal's surface while oxygen is present. It is a naturally occurring process found in most metals. Through experimentation I have tried to tame that process. Shingle cabinet is made from veneered Huon pine with solid turned <PERSON> legs and oxidized copper shingles. It is 1200mm high, 480mm wide and with a depth of 400mm
