lacquered vanity by giorgio biscaro from italy
designer's own words:
Japanese urushi Lacquer, when performed by skilled lacquerer, allows a realistic reflection without any distortion or flaw. This is why in my all-lacquered mirror, "Making is thinking": the master must understand the best way to paint the liquid lacquer to achieve the best surface reflectivity, nevertheless maintaining a high level of decoration, industrially unreachable. Although ancient mirror were obtained by polishing a metal sheet, my lacquered mirror want to celebrate advanced Lacquering technique comparing it to a more "regular" production method.
