AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pair of vintage pear-shaped mirrors in wood and gilded stucco - 1950s-1960s
Fascinating and elegant pair of vintage wall mirrors dating to the mid-20th century (roughly the 1950s-60s). The mirrors feature a refined and unusual organic pear-shaped form or an asymmetric silhouette, which gives them a strong decorative character and a decidedly dramatic appearance.
The frames are made of wood and stucco, completely finished with classic gilding (gold leaf or gilded paint with a very beautiful patina of time). The upper and lower ends are adorned with small ornamental motifs carved in a Baroque and Neoclassical-inspired style.
Perfect for enriching a wall gallery, for an entrance, or to add a retro and eclectic touch to interiors, both classic and contemporary.
The mirrors are presented in good overall vintage condition, stable and ready to hang. The gilding shows a natural and fascinating patina of time with very light signs of wear that attest to their authenticity and age (please look closely at the photos for details). The mirrored glass is intact.
Seller's Story
For over 20 years, I have dedicated myself passionately to the search for and trading of special, rare, curious objects from any era.
Every piece I select has something that catches my attention: it can be the shape, the story, the unusual aspect, or simply that detail that makes it unique.
I am always searching for objects that speak, that tell something to those who know how to listen.
I choose them carefully, photograph them honestly, and describe them as accurately as possible.
Selling on this Catawiki to share this passion with those who, like me, love to surround themselves with things with a soul.
