Turquoise Chevron
The piece
Turquoise Chevron layers rows of nested chevrons into an overlapping scale pattern on a black ground. Each peak is built from fine parallel lines in turquoise that fade toward violet in the shadows, so the rows appear to recede like roof tiles. The repeat is crisp and regular, with a clear upward direction. It sets a sharp, modern tone in an entryway, a home office or a dark living room.
