Jacob Marks Pine Resin
Jacob Marks has developed a craft around pine resin, a natural substance extracted from tree bark. Across a range of functional and decorative objects, he highlights the material's translucency and tone, shaping it into sculptural forms with rich, organic textures.
A functional handle for drawers or doors, crafted by New Maker Jacob Marks. Individually hand-cast from pine resin, a natural substance sourced from Portuguese pine, fir and cedar trees. Jute fibres and charcoal are mixed in to create a deep tone and tactile finish.
Jacob's inventive use of pine resin is expressed through a distinctive range of decorative vessels and home accessories. Based in London, he is motivated by the material's renewable and biodegradable properties.
