The Luxus Lobster in Candy is hand-embroidered across its entire upper surface in sequins — a rose-red and silver mix that shifts and catches the light as the piece is handled. Turn it over and the underside is plain silk velvet, the contrast between the two surfaces as considered as everything else Anke Drechsel makes.
Designed in Germany and made by hand in India, the Luxus Lobster belongs to a body of work Drechsel has developed over decades — objects that occupy the space between decorative art and keepsake. The Candy colourway runs warm red into cool silver, the sequins doing what sequins do best when the light moves across them.
