OBSIDIA, an unusual mirror object celebrating the colour black.
As history teaches, long ago, people used to see their reflections in dark water. Eventually, they started creating their first mirrors using a black, polished volcanic stone called obsidian.
In this case, still honouring history through its name, OBSIDIA is processed using modern techniques from the automotive industry. The mirror’s outline is inspired by car silhouettes, while its surface is given by different layers of black paint, each polished with meticulous care and attention.

OBSIDIA celebrates the colour black.
Despite always being associated with darkness, gloom, fear, mourning or death, this dark hue can also take on a new, surprising and hypnotic character.
