Larisa Book Stand

Larisa is a book stand drawn new for Archilumos. It opens into an X. One half is walnut, the other is matt brass, and a brass hinge in the middle joins them. Each of the rounded-corner plates carries a thin brass strip that holds the book. It takes its name from Larisa, the ancient city in Menemen, Izmir. It holds a book, an album or a tablet. It folds on the hinge and takes little room when closed. We wipe the walnut with a damp cloth and the brass with a dry one. Brass darkens over time. It stands on a desk, in a bookcase, in a hotel room or on a lobby console. Walnut tone, brass finish and size are decided at order.
