About the Item

Rare Italian Mid-Century mirror with a round central panel surrounded by 18 delicately chisel cut smaller mirrors, each faceted to gilt iron stems forming a composition of a sunburst/starburst. Each smaller mirror is thick and hand cut into multi-angle to form individual sunbursts/starbursts. Center panel is naturally antiqued. The whole composition is one of the highpoints of Venetian Craft and the modern genius of Fontana Arte. Missing glass back panel. Literature: Fontana Arte 6, manufacturer's catalog, unpaginated. Max Ingrand: Du Verre a la Lumière, Martin-Vivier, pg. 216 for similar concept. Wright, Important Design, December 15, 2011, #185 for similar model.
