The Sculptures


Salvatore

My name is Salvatore (Sal) and I've been created with over 15 species of reclaimed wood. I am presently completing my outdoor “Weathering” period, having been lovingly hand-coated with a blend of natural oils. This process and time has made me essentially waterproof and impervious to bugs and rot, as I wish to live until the end of time, if at all possible, and to say nothing of my wonderful tone & complexion.

I am suited for both indoor or outdoor living. I have the ability to stand alone or hang on a great wall with a French cleat.

Jules

I'm Jules the younger, more rebelious cousin of Salvatore. Created with 10 species of reclaimed wood, my “Weathering” period outdoors is complete and I must say it's been a blast, literally!

I too was envisioned and created by Giles Runeckles, and I enjoy both indoor and outdoor living, although I really see myself either on a wall or standing indoors, enjoying the view from an expansive window setting.

Specifications:

  • In keeping with my R3 Initiative, the use of any environmentally sensitive material was kept to a minimum if used at all. The lumber was sourced end-cuts from ZOOHAUS studio work, commercial waste programs and 3rd party contractor participation. A blend of all natural oils including, Tung, Linseed & Teak were used to treat and seal the wood, and then given a final, hand-applied, natural wax finish.
  • Footnote: We're thrilled that Giles has kindly undertaken the creation of two additional FACES sculptures (friends of ours), Olivia (Oly) and Arturo (Teddy) who will be joining us late summer 2024.
