Créé par Ionna Vautrin et édité par la maison Moustache, Cyclope tire son nom des miroirs convexes autrefois appelés "œil de sorcière". Enigmatique, Cyclope est un miroir qui donne la sensation étrange qu'une tierce personne nous observe de l'autre côté. Ce miroir bombé se dresse sur un pied conique en terre cuite comme la statue d'un personnage observant son environnement. Ionna Vautrin s'inspire des manches à air des bateaux pour réaliser les lignes de cet objet insolite fabriqué de façon artisanale en Italie.
Born in France in 1979, Ionna Vautrin studied design in Nantes, graduating in 2002. Since then, Ionna Vautrin has worked with some of the biggest names on the French and international design scene, including the Bouroullec brothers. The success of her creations was immediate, enabling her to work for some of the best-known brands, including Foscarini, for whom she creates lighting fixtures, as well as the French publisher Moustache, for whom she creates pure, elegant design accessories for the home. Among her creations are the Ô collection of vases and baskets and the Baobab table, full of charm and poetry for the bedroom. In 2011, Ionna Vautrin opened her own studio after winning the Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris.

MOUSTACHE
A producer of unusual, bold and innovative furniture, Moustache was founded by Stéphane Arriuberge and Massimiliano Iorio.
The Moustache collection explores new avenues of production and consumption. It brings a humorous touch to all household furniture, both in terms of the product names and their forms. Particularly memorable in this sense are the Micro coat hooks for kids' rooms designed by design trio Big-Game, which give a nod to journalists' microphones, as well as the Vapeur pendant and table lamps designed by Inga Sempé.
