The Atlas Rail Tie Sculpture has a storied namesake. In Greek mythology, Atlas was the Titan god of endurance whom Zeus tasked with holding up the celestial heavens for eternity. The black figures extending from the black base on this sculpture, which support the organically shaped wood artifact, have as weighty a job as the mythical hero. With this sculpture, we’ve taken a piece of chamcha wood that would have been one of nature’s castaways and made it into an elemental design statement. Given the minimal feel of this composition, the overall style is fitting for a number of interiors, including a contemporary, modern farmhouse, and industrial chic. Because this piece is a piece of raw wood, color and woodgrain character may vary, adding a unique personality to your piece. There are a variety of furnishings and accessories in the Atlas Collection that reflect the ethos Phillips Collection personifies: modern organic.
