In the deep aubergine shade favored by the more dramatic corners of the Grand Budapest's lobby, this elegantly restrained desk mat presents a collection of the hotel's most significant emblems. The establishment's distinguished insignia shares space with a perfectly arranged selection of Society of the Crossed Keys' golden instruments — each one rendered with the sort of precise linework that would have earned Deputy Kovacs' solemn approval. These are complemented by the notorious double-Z insignia, that particular symbol which once caused M. Gustave to remark with characteristic precision on the disturbing competence of our future pursuers. Arranged with all the authority of a military decoration yet all the discretion of a concealed birthmark, these golden elements float across the royal purple expanse like the last lights glimpsed through the hotel's windows on a winter's evening. A sophisticated foundation for one's keyboard that suggests both institutional prestige and a certain dangerous elegance.
