In a world decorated by primarily flat reflectors, these molten mirrors make for captivating accessories for any interior environment. Fabricated from steel using FiDU technology, the smooth and lucid surfaces seem to punch out from rounded edges, as if they're large puddles of silvery liquid.
Zieta produces these Tafla mirrors in all sorts of shapes and sizes. They all have an organic theme in common, taking forms that break away from strict geometries. Bring your own Chicago bean sculpture (AKA Cloud Gate) into your home by installing these molten mirrors on the wall, or by propping them up on the floor. Their unique sculptural qualities deliver equally singular sights: bending, expanding and shrinking the onlooker's image in impeccable clarity. Between how they look and what they represent, these are truly artistic objects.
