This 24 inch London Underground roundel, once marking Piccadilly Circus station, features the iconic red bullseye and blue bar. It is pure London in one confident circle.
The red field is still vivid and glossy, with scattered scuffs and surface marks that read like the memory of a thousand passing commuters. The blue name bar is deep and inky, allowing the crisp white lettering to stand out with authority. There are scratches and minor wear to the enamel, visible upon close inspection, but nothing that interrupts its graphic punch. If anything, they confirm it once lived in the wild rather than in a storage crate.
The London Underground roundel is one of the most successful pieces of public design ever created. It is simple, bold, democratic. This example, tied to Piccadilly Circus, carries the added romance of one of the city’s most storied stations.
