VALUE
Historically, gem traders used carob seeds as standard weights, inspiring the term "carat." This project, comprising a glass and silver safe, a vial, and a carob seed, challenges our perceptions of value by juxtaposing the traditionally valuable (the safe) with the conceptually valuable (the seed), urging us to reconsider what we truly value.
