Working in bronze, aluminium, steel, glass and resin, Toogood has designed a dressing table lighting, jewellery stand and armoured bench that refract and reflect light to create shifting optical effects.

The collection also includes new versions of her Elements Table and Spade Chair, which both featured in her country-inspired Super Natural presentation in London last September and the more sinister Natura Morta show in Milan.

The series examines iridescence as a natural optical force through new and re-contextualised works in bronze, aluminium, steel, glass and resin. By a touch of alchemy she uses man-made materials to create a natural phenomenon, mimicking nature’s ability to attract and protect through the refraction of light.

The entire series will be on show at Phillips de Pury’s Brook Street space with Studio Toogood directing the exhibition design. All works in the collection will be available exclusively through Phillips de Pury.
