Art Deco French Chiseled Mantel Mirror, 1940s

About the Item

Mirror from the Art Deco period in France. This piece is circa 1940. It has a rectangular central mirror, all original. The top and sides of the mirror are framed with hand chiseled mirror. The detailing shows stylized forms of flowers on the corners and center of the top. There are also architectural scalloped patterns. The outer edges of the mirror frame are scalloped as well. The bottom of the mirror has a brass trim. The mirror is supported by the original wood backing for structural support. It is in excellent vintage condition – the photos accurately depict the condition of the mirror. Symbolizing a time of great change worldwide, Art Deco, short for Arts Décoratifs, is often synonymous with bold, geometric architecture and luxurious, extravagant graphics as well as rich colors and decadent detail work. Ultimately, the Art Deco style is a pastiche of many styles, all coming together in a desire for modernism. Spanning from the beginning of World War I to the beginning of World War II, the style affected design, both commercial and independent, on a massive scale and continues to be seen in fashion, jewelry, and furniture today. There were many influences, from the geometric forms of Cubism, bright colors of Fauvism, the craftsmanship of Louis XVI, and the exotic influences of Asian and Egyptian art.
