About the Item

“Because a reality wasn’t given to us and is not there; but we have to make it ourselves, if we want to be; and it will never be one for ever, but constant and infinitely changeable.” Luigi Pirandello – One, No One and One Hundred Thousand. Thanks to a particular interplay of points of view, when looking at Gengè – the furniture accessory designed by Matteo Vilardo and Marcello Marino per MEDULUM – it is only possible to scrutinise its image when looking from the right angle, while those looking from the outside will continue to see only the mask formed by the object. A collection of non-mirrors – at the same time highly unusual, spectacular and yet minimalist – which leads the observer to reflect on the topic of identity within contemporary society, spurring them not to stop their search for the masks which overlap between ourselves and reality. Thus, the ancient and extremely important topic of the double is reinterpreted through the tools of design: what we really are and what others see of us. A collection of non-mirrors which aims to lead the observer to investigate – in a manner which is contemporary yet at the same time free of any form of virtuality – the ancient theme of identity and its double; using the mask as the shape, the mirror as the instrument and a wooden diaphragm as an optical expedient. A stated homage by the designers to Italian writer Pirandello and the protagonist of his novel Uno, nessuno e centomila (One, No One and One Hundred Thousand), Gengè also indirectly represents a tribute to his common Sicilian origins.

  • Unique Arts & Crafts Style Wall Mirror w. Gold Painted Grape Leafs / Wine Theme
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Striking wall mirror with handcrafted, golden colored grape leafs. Via one of our foreign contacts we recently purchased this rare and decorative mirror with perfectly realistic grape leaf 'sculptures'. This all handcrafted work-of-art-mirror from the midcentury era displays these golden colored leafs all around. Besides the fact that they are gold painted these 'wine leafs' also stand out, because they are very well created and truly realistic. Have you also noticed the solid brass twirling patterns between each leaf? Anyone who has ever looked at a grape twine up close will recognize what they are. We date this finest workmanship mirror to circa 1960-1970 and both the finest quality workmanship frame AND the original mirror itself could not be in better condition. Thanks to the metal bracket on the back, mounting this stylish and artistic piece can be done in a matter of seconds. All it takes is a hook on your wall. Thanks to its unique design and the rare grape/wine theme this Arts and Crafts style mirror...
