Story
A chest for toys and secrets
Javier Mariscal designed El Baúl in 2005 as a trunk and container. Its tag line is "Keep your treasures safe with El Baul", and the chest is a friend that always has room for favourite toys and for costumes for dressing up.
Rotational-moulded polyethylene
The chest is made in rotational-moulded polyethylene. Mariscal moves between disciplines with curiosity and a drive for innovation, and his approach to any commission is an artistic one built on drawing.
