Item description

1960s wall mirror in solid brass designed and made in Italy in the style of Gio Ponti, who used this type of mirror in the most beautiful homes in Milan in the 1950s. The brass has a beautiful original patina, the glass is the original one. The shield shape was a characteristic of the mirrors designed by Gio Ponti. This mirror is a stunning piece of vintage design that embodies the essence of mid-century aesthetics showcasing its signature mix of functionality, elegance and modernist influences. The mirror has a bold and eye-catching presence that makes it a focal point in any room. The shape is reminiscent of ancient armor shields, adding a touch of historical reference to the design. The frame is made of brass, a popular material choice during the mid-century. The warm golden hue of the brass matches the reflective surface of the mirror, creating a harmonious visual effect. The brass construction is sleek and minimalist, with clean lines and a smooth finish that showcases the simplicity and sophistication of mid-century modern design. The mirror itself is large in size, allows for reflection, and serves as both a functional and decorative element in the room. The reflective surface is clear and unadorned, emphasizing the mirror's purpose while enhancing the illusion of space and light in the surrounding area. This wall mirror encapsulates the spirit of the 1950s design era. Its combination of organic and geometric shapes, along with the use of high-quality materials, exemplifies the era's commitment to both form and function.
