constance guisset: francis for petite friture
coloured pigments lain directly onto the reflective surface adds an artistic suggestion of depth and convexity to the pocket and wall mirrors.
‘francis’ mirror series by constance guisset for petite friture
created by french designer constance guisset for the paris-based company petite friture, the ‘francis’ mirrors place soft washes of colour directly onto their viewing surfaces: the ‘results of a series using pigments vanishing on water‘ that are designed to suggest convexity and depth.
the pocket mirrors, produced in two colour models, have a diameter of 7.5cm (3 inches); a wall-hanging version measures 60cm (23.6 inches). the backs of all pieces are lacquered in black. the pocket mirrors feature a satin finger ribbon in a colour matching the mirror’s print, while the wall model can be inclined at a range of angles via an attached cord.
