Elemento Uno Mirror By Nikolai Kotlarczyk For Portego

Designed by Nikolai Kotlarczyk for Portego in 2017, Elemento is a series of solid glass mirrors full of depth and bold graphic lines, expertly crafted by hand in Murano. The pieces reference the repeated use of perspective and illusion within the art, architecture, and artisan crafts of the Veneto region. A central inspiration was the forms and spatial designs of the architect Andrea Palladio, and his constant focus on the concept of vista within his work. Working with the skilled glass artists of Murano, a subtle use of perspective and depth was created through the intricate carving and grinding of the mirrored glass surfaces, which were then silvered to give depth to the details. The back is in wood painted in a cream color and a wall hanger is included so it can be easily hung on the wall with a screw. Numbered,Numbered
