Breakfast Room Room
Sculpture Stand
The four matching sculpture stands in the breakfast room were specifically designed to display Greek Blackware Pottery. The disc-shaped shelves contain a circline light bulb with a colored gel and a special optical grid which only allows the light to travel vertically from the top and bottom of the disc. This feature subtly lights the blackware with no side light escaping. The ceramics appear to be glowing with their own light.
