Mirror

Description

Triple Lune is inspired by Morvi Palace, the Art Deco architectural masterpiece built in 1942 and photographed by legendary Indian photographer Raghubir Singh. Drawing from the palace’s distinctive geometry and coloured surfaces, Doshi Levien designed a mirror composed of three intersecting circles arranged in a balanced, sculptural composition.

At the centre is the largest clear mirror. It is flanked on either side by crescent mirrors in tinted violet and golden yellow, creating a gentle interplay of colour and reflection. Each tinted crescent is framed by a colour-matched lacquered border that echoes the curvature of the form. The mirrors intersect cleanly, allowing the three shapes to read both as a single composition and as distinct elements.

Triple Lune can be placed in an entrance, living space or bedroom, where its interplay of clear and tinted surfaces brings subtle shifts of tone and depth. Although composed of simple geometric parts, the piece carries a quiet presence shaped by its Art Deco lineage and the architectural memory of Morvi Palace.
