Fungi etched their silent patterns into beech wood. Time was stilled, ice-like, as nature’s slow decay became a seamless gesture of form.

Beech WOOD with FUNGI Texture, Extraclear POLISHED Transparent RESIN, ICJ Invisible Corner Joining.
Recovered from the Italian Dolomite forest, the Fungi Table is crafted from a large Beech log marked by native fungal activity — each line and shadow a silent record of time, place, and transformation. The live edges are encased in an extra-clear resin that evokes the winter ice once halting the fungi’s growth, preserving a fleeting natural process in stillness.
The plank has been cut with a fine blade and rejoined with precise alignment of the fungal woodgrain, forming an L-shape with corners so seamless that both wood and resin appear uninterrupted. Through a proprietary process, alcarol creates a single, continuous volume — a solid trace of ephemeral life. This invisible joinery can be adapted for various typologies: tables, benches, shelves, and beyond.
Each piece is unique — a quiet testament to the living conditions that shaped it, and to the poetry of transformation hidden in decay.
