AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vintage advertising sign in the form of a silkscreened mirror, original from the 80s/90s, made for the famous Italian brand "Antica Gelateria del Corso".
This splendid wall piece represents a perfect example of Italian bar modernism. The mirror design is strongly influenced by the Liberty / Art Nouveau style, characterized by elegant scrolls and silkscreened frames in brilliant gold color. At the center dominates the classic vintage illustration of the brand with two figures in historical costumes in front of a shop window.
The real peculiarity that makes this piece unique and highly collectible is the customization on the right side with the gold inscription "Bar Tennis", testimony to its actual use and its history inside public venues of the era. The frame is made of sturdy solid wood in a walnut finish.
A nostalgic piece of furniture, ideal for collectors of advertising memorabilia (Signs & Tables), vintage lovers, or to decorate taverns, kitchens, and retro-themed commercial venues.
In excellent overall vintage condition. The glass has no cracks, the gold silkscreen and the details are perfectly vivid and not faded, only very slight signs of aging.
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.
