This piece offers a bold, angular contrast of shape and color, where deep azure and rich gold create a feeling of both warmth and cool depth. The sharp lines carve the space into a series of blocks and planes, suggesting a three-dimensional form on a two-dimensional plane. A singular, pointed triangle in shades of red, orange, and white punctuates the composition, drawing the eye to its layered simplicity. The artwork is a modern exploration of form, its architectural qualities and confident color blocking evoking the spirit of avant-garde design and abstract expression. It is a striking visual statement that would add a touch of sophistication and intellectual intrigue to any environment.

The majority of Vera's original artwork is unsigned and undated. This absence of her signature is largely due to her original artwork being used in textile and houseware designs, where her trademarked signature was later added. Typically, her original artwork was named after being incorporated into a master strike off. In some instances, the date of the piece was added to the back; however, this date may signify when the artwork was trademarked or presented to a customer. Some of her original pieces include notes on the back, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of The Vera Company.
