GROVE BAMBOO IPHONE AND IPAD CASES
HI-TECH PRODUCTION METHODS AND HAND CRAFTMANSHIP
From homeware to accessories, our editorial team is fond of wood as a material – it being derived from nature and authentic texture. Grove, from Portland (U.S.), focuses on bamboo wood. Surpassing traditional retail, it has developed a new concept and attracts many creative practitioners.
Its latest offering are iPhone and iPad cases – from sketch, choice of material to delivery, the studio is responsible for the whole process. Made with solid bamboo wood, a material that is durable and robust. Polished and put together by hand, it is then painted with natural oil; cushioned in the inside to prevent scratching on the gadget. Choosing from ‘natural’ or ‘amber’, customers can also have a pattern laser-cut on the back – either select one from the official designs or one of your very own.
