Note: "The corner joint, and hence the name of this piece, was inspired by the domed Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, where triangular vaulted wedges called pendentives cradle the circular dome on its square foundation. The long cherry panels and wine-glass-shaped corner joints remind us of the graceful lines of an old wooden boat transom" https://www.thosmoser.com/collection/sofia/product/142/sofia_
