Description

Nedre Foss's Laguz is a sculptural cast iron object designed by Julie Richoz, equally at home as a bookend, paperweight, or art object in its own right. Its expressive form echoes elements of 1920s German Expressionism, while the handle at the top is reminiscent of traditional iron weights. Made in Sweden, this substantial cast iron piece weighs about three kilograms.

The name Laguz refers to the l-rune of the ancient Germanic Futhark runic alphabet, associated with water, intuition, emotions, and the subconscious. Strongly symbolic yet open to interpretation, Laguz can be seen as a rune, an animal-like figure, or a reflection of one's own imagination.
