{"title":"Oloid","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1929, Swiss mathematician Paul Schatz discovered an impossible-looking geometric shape: a solid that, when set on a flat surface, rolls in a hypnotic, figure-eight motion — touching every part of its surface as it moves. He called it the Oloid. Nearly a century later, the Oloid is still captivating mathematicians, engineers, and designers alike. Crafted in wood, the Oloid is one of the most quietly mesmerizing objects you can place on a desk — equal parts mathematical curiosity, meditative tool, and sculptural conversation piece. MetropolitanDecor.com carries the Oloid as an authorized retailer, distributed through Ameico, the premier source for extraordinary international design objects in North America.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"ameico-classics-oloid-marble","title":"Oloid Marble","description":"\u003ch3\u003eOloid Marble\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSKU: IC-OLOID-M-DG\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesign by Paul Schatz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoll the Oloid down a smooth, slightly inclined surface and you will witness its meandering, three-dimensional movement.

When buying this product, you at the same time support the marble crafts people on the island of Romblon and the cultural projects of “Koberwitz 1924 Inc.” on the Philippines, mainly in the fields of agriculture, health and education.
