The materials
The wood for Fleming comes from the Paulownia tree. It’s by far the fastest growing, deciduous hardwood tree in the world. And a single plantation can be harvested several times offering a sustainable, renewable source of timber. You can read all about the Paulownia tree on our journal.

The finish
Multiple layers of red, black and gold are painted and dusted across the surface, before being rubbed back to create lines and reveal the ridges. It produces a finish that looks like gold leaf, but is much more robust.
Design details
The glass on our Fleming mirror is beveled to create a more traditional, classic look.
Ways to use it
Mirrors create a sense of space – hung at the end of a short hallway, they’ll add depth; hung either side of a narrow hallway, they’ll add width. They boost natural light – so position one opposite a window in a dark hallway or a dark corner of a room. A mirror can create an interesting focal point – place one behind a special object you want to highlight, and so create a reflection of it in another part of the room.
