Essential is a mirror that brings the archetype of the domestic floor standing mirrors to the zero degree of essentiality.
Like all of our Instant Design objects, the target of this piece is an absolute simplicity: any superfluous element has been eliminated, there remains a mirror lifted from the ground by a rectangular frame of raw steel plates. A simple surface treatment with black beeswax prevents any iron oxidation.
The inclination of few degrees created on the vertical axis makes more slender the reflected human figure.
Whether or not aware of this typical property of inclined mirrors, people see their reflection unusually beautiful!
