A dark mulberry lacquer lit from within by an almost electric violet shimmer, Ovid’s Mulberry shifts dramatically with the light.

In softer illumination, the base settles into a rich wine-plum and blackened berry tone; under direct light, an intense violet-purple sheen rises across the surface, revealing flashes that can read brighter magenta and pink.

The name draws from the story of Pyramus and Thisbe in Ovid’s Metamorphoses, where the mulberry’s once-pale fruit is forever transformed to a deep red purple—a legend of devotion, tragedy, and irreversible change. Ovid’s Mulberry translates that transformation into color: dark and restrained one moment, vividly illuminated the next.
