SOLID - CARRARA MARBLE TABLE LIGHTSolid Italian fine-grained Carrara marble, topped by a hand-blown opal glass shade - 2016
"I failed my 11+ and so went to the best school in the country, Holloway Comprehensive. I hated English, because of the writing and it was obvious that I was a bit thick. Later, in my thirties, I was diagnosed dyslexic and I remember going to bed that night rather comforted that my condition had a name (the bonus was that everyone has difficulty spelling it). Then at 3am I woke up with the thought; Shit! Can you be thick and dyslexic?"
