About the Item

I am offering for sale a stunning mirror, a manifesto of the great skills of Italian artisans in glassmaking during the mid-20th century. Made in Italy between the 50s and 60s, the production of this mirror is attributed to the historic company Cristal Art. The structure of this vintage mirror is layered, consisting of 3 oval-shaped levels. The first layer is in smoked bevelled glass, the smoke color tends towards tobacco color rather than gray or green. The second layer is what makes this mirror magical, an oval in glass decorated with ground segments, a decorative motif called "Unghiature", which creates a sort of luminous ray. The glass is mirrored thanks to the application of a thin layer of silver or aluminum, fixed to the glass by electrolysis, which gives it an iridescent pink color. The last layer is the actual mirror, oval and bevelled. The design and materials used are typical of the Italian production of glass furnishing accessories from the 1930s to the 1960s, produced by Cristal Art or by the historic company Fontana Arte. The mirror is intact and stable, without breaks or chips, it shows signs of use and aging on the layers of silver or aluminum applied to the glass

Brutalist Mirror in hammered copper in the style of A. Bragalini, Italy 1960s
Located in Roma, IT
A mid-century mirror with an unusual and sinuous shape, the circular shape becomes three-dimensional, rising and falling, creating waves and craters just like the lunar surface. This vintage mirror is made in Italy between the 50s and 60s and recalls the work of the artist Angeli Bragalini due to its sculptural style, techniques used and use of copper. Angelo Bragalini was an Italian architect and sculptor who mastered goldsmithing techniques which he used to create works of art but also to create artefacts and furnishing accessories in his material of choice: copper. He also collaborated on the creation of scenographic elements for iconic films such as 8 1/2 (1963) and Juliet of the Spirits...
