Cristal Art - Wall mirror - Glass

Rectangular Crystal Art mirror, model 2712 – Italy, 1970s

Elegant rectangular mirror produced by Cristal Art, model 2712, characterized by a scenographic and thick blue concave glass frame that encloses the central mirrored glass.

The mirror is supported by refined brass mounts fixed to a wooden base, creating a fascinating suspended effect that adds lightness and depth to the composition.

The design is surprising and refined: the mirror appears to “float” inside the colored glass frame thanks to the metallic uprights, a distinctive element of Cristal Art production from the 1960s–70s. The result is a decorative object with great stage presence, capable of enhancing both classic interiors and contemporary environments.

Quintessential in design and impeccable in execution, this iconic Cristal Art mirror perfectly represents the quality and elegance of post-war Italian design.

Conditions:
The mirror is in excellent condition. The brass mounts show a natural patina of time, visible in the photographs, which testifies to the authenticity and charm of the vintage object. The crystal and the mirror are well preserved.

Dimensions:
100 × 65 cm
