Dime Cabinet | Miles Hartwell
Bath / United Kingdom / 2019

Evocative of a spinning coin, Dime is a dynamic wall cabinet, with a signature Splinter Works twist of illusion and intrigue.
When closed the semi-spherical shape, with sculptural segments, has a poetic repetition of form, softened by the texture of American walnut.
Upon opening, the curved segments have a pleasing resistance, each contracting evenly until fully opened to reveal its function as a drinks cabinet.
The edges of the walnut leaves are lined in ripple sycamore veneer which highlights their shape. The playful form allows the user to hide or reveal the countertop and wine storage.
It is a subtle, yet delightfully tactile piece, that would fit equally well into contemporary or traditional interiors.
We recently created a bespoke Dime Bar with globe motif for the stunning interior of a yacht designed by H2 Yacht Design (see final image).
