Tile Mirror, Gold

A study in geometric discipline, the Tile Mirror arrives in a square format — twenty-eight inches in each direction — where maple construction meets a Gold Coast finish of particular warmth and complexity. The shallow depth of three and a half inches belies the relief and architectural presence the piece commands on a wall, its tiled composition breaking the mirror plane into a rhythm of faceted reflections. From the atelier of John Richard, it is the kind of object that reads as both decorative and structural, anchoring a room with the quiet authority of something that has always belonged there.
