Ozymandias

The Ozymandias Stool is a sculptural ottoman that reinterprets the shattered visage of a pharaonic colossus as a functional object of ironic grandeur. Its base takes the form of a stylized bust of Ramesses II, rendered in deep blue-black tones with pierced lotus openwork, refined gold accents, and a calm yet authoritative expression. A plush, tufted midnight-blue upholstered seat crowns the piece, inviting the viewer to quite literally sit upon the head of a “King of Kings”—a poetic gesture that transforms ancient symbols of power into a contemporary meditation on impermanence, luxury, and wit.
