It is cut into something like sixteen planes, which is FEW for a block this size, so each plane is broad. That is what decides how it reads: the front plane returns a saturated magenta as one whole field, the upper right is gold going to acid yellow, the left flank below it is pale green and cyan, and each meets the next along a hard edge rather than a blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFew Planes, So Each Colour Arrives Whole\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew and broad planes is a harder cut than many and small, for a reason that is not obvious. A small facet forgives a fraction of a degree because the eye has nothing to compare it against; a broad one shows the error across its whole width, and on a translucent body it shows it twice, once on the surface and again as a distortion through the material. So each plane is worked flat against a reference and brought to a full polish edge to edge, because the coating over it reproduces whatever is beneath. The lean is set at the same time as the base plane is cut, and it has to be enough to read as deliberate and little enough that nobody wants to straighten it - which is a narrower window than it sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFifty-three centimetres puts it at eye level, so a console, a sideboard or a cabinet top suits it better than the floor, and it needs room around it because the lean needs somewhere to lean into. Set it clear of other objects for a second reason: it throws coloured light onto whatever stands beside it, and a pale surface next to it takes on the magenta. Daylight is what a coating like this wants, since a broad changing source moves it through its range while one fixed spot holds it at whatever colour it found. Against a dark wall the planes separate; against a white one they wash together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBroad Planes, the Coating and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFigure the difference between standard and bespoke at 3–4 weeks against 5–6. The coating is chosen at order and it decides the object: this magenta and gold set, a cool blue-to-green shift, a single colour, or an uncoated block reading as clear glass. The cut is drawn per piece, so more planes and finer, or fewer and broader still, are both available, and the lean can be taken out for a block that stands square. It is made from something that sits on a desk up to a piece that clears a doorway. It is moved standing as it stands, taken by two opposite planes with flat hands, since a coated face laid down on grit marks in a way that cannot be polished out.
