A Series of Cabinets and Mirror Furniture
Glas Italia, a glass furniture maker globally acclaimed for its high-quality craftsmanship, marks its second consecutive year of collaboration with Tokujin Yoshioka, following the "LUMINOUS table" presented at last year's Milan Salone.
The "PRISM mirror" series, unveiled this year, comprises cabinets and mirror furniture crafted from thick, high-transparency glass.
Yoshioka describes the PRISM mirror: "I envisioned creating mirrors with the transparency of a prism by facet-cutting glass. Their simple yet substantial forms will create intriguing expressions through the refraction of light, becoming sculptural pieces that radiate brilliance."
