This is an amazing piece of design. The prismatic cutting highlights the brilliant clarity of the glass and the simplicity of the design. Until now we have only seen Zahour designs illustrated they rarely come up for sale.

This is without doubt an investment grade piece of the future. We have greatly enjoyed being the temporary custodian. it refracts daylight quite beautifully.
