About the Item

This exquisite Italian Art Deco table mirror is a fine example of early 20th century craftsmanship that exudes timeless elegance and vintage charm. The mirror's sophisticated design and aged patina tell a story, craftsmanship and exquisite detailing that make it a unique decorative piece that perfectly blends functionality and beauty. One of the most distinctive features of this mirror is the forged plaque on the back with the initials MLR, likely representing the name of the original owner or maker. This small but significant detail adds an element of exclusivity and historical intrigue, hinting at the mirror's provenance and its journey through time. The frame is made of original period wood, beautifully weathered over time, developing a rich, warm patina that enhances its authenticity and character. The natural wear and soft sheen of the wood enhance its vintage charm, making it a remarkable representation of Art Deco elegance. The frame's geometric lines are emblematic of the aesthetics of the 1920s-1930s, in which designers embraced organic shapes and soft contours to create visually striking yet balanced pieces. The mirror glass features a subtly beveled edge, a sophisticated touch that adds depth and sophistication to its reflection. Over time, the mercury backing has developed a natural patina and slight signs of aging, creating a delicate play of light and texture that enhances the mirror's vintage essence. Rather than detracting from its beauty, these time-worn details contribute to its undeniable charm and authenticity, making it an ideal item for collectors. Around the perimeter of the mirror are small decorative metal studs that carefully attach the glass to the frame. These studs not only strengthen the frame, but also add a delicate and ornamental touch, showing the meticulous craftsmanship typical of the work of atrr. a L. Fontana. The combination of wood, metal and aged glass creates an extraordinary interplay of materials that embodies the sophisticated appeal of Art Deco design. The mirror is supported by a simple but sturdy metal stand, designed to be placed seamlessly on a vanity, console or dressing table. This practical addition allows the mirror to be displayed at an ideal angle, making it both a functional and decorative piece. The mirror is in its original condition, with visible signs of age and use that enhance its authenticity and historical value.
