Napkin Ring on Trolley with Staircase

Cool window light floods a jeweler's stall in Siirt, illuminating a lacquered drinks trolley with brass scales and trays nearby. A simple napkin ring rests on the trolley's surface, its metal catching small highlights from the broad skylight bouncing off pale walls. Tiny scuffs and handling marks dot the lacquered finish, evidence of use. Behind the trolley, a wooden staircase rises from a central landing, yet a second identical set of stairs descends from that same point simultaneously. The impossible geometry anchors the room while polished surfaces reflect the late afternoon sun. One scratch on the napkin ring catches the light, marking the boundary between the tangible and the impossible.
