Rayon is a handcrafted ceiling made of solid oak wood in a dining room for a private client in Egypt. The design and execution for this French classic style piece of art took nearly one year to complete. Handcrafted by Egyptian artisans it is 4.25m by 6.80m, all covered in handcrafted solid oak wood motifs while satin luster and patina used to create its vintage look. The design concept resembles a sun with crepuscular like rays. The rays were designed to evince the leaves and branches that distinguish the flamboyant French Classic flair.
