About the Item

Italian 1950s Brass Shield Mirror in the Style of Gio Ponti Mid-Century Modern Wall Mirror An elegant Italian mid-century brass-framed shield mirror dating from the 1950s, designed in the distinctive style of Gio Ponti. One of Italy’s most influential 20th-century designers, Ponti helped define the lightness, clean lines, and refined proportions that became the hallmark of Italian mid-century modern design. This mirror reflects that legacy — combining simple, graceful form with subtle detailing. The original glass shows gentle ageing throughout, with minor pitting, foxing, and light scratches that add to the character and authenticity of the piece. The brass frame displays honest wear, with appealing textural marks, natural tarnish, and surface character that enhance its vintage charm — see enclosed photographs. This mirror was sourced at one of the oldest antique markets in a medieval town in Tuscany and was carefully shipped back to London with all due care. It is ideal as a decorative wall piece in a hallway, living room, bedroom, or study, adding a touch of mid-century Italian style to any interior. A collectible design object for those who appreciate original 1950s craftsmanship. Approximate size: 86.7 cm high x 59.3 cm wide x 2.4 cm deep Available from the UK. Worldwide shipping arranged.
