Large mirror

This large mirror, produced in Sweden during the 1940s, features a frame crafted from solid mahogany. The frame is shaped with a continuous curved profile that imparts a soft, organic appearance, while smoothly rounded corners enhance its refined and understated aesthetic. The expansive reflective surface is carefully set within the frame, allowing the natural grain and deep coloration of the mahogany to serve as a prominent visual element.

Mahogany was a favored material in Scandinavian craftsmanship during this era due to its durability and rich, elegant grain structure. Its use here underscores the mirror’s quality and the period’s preference for combining functionality with natural beauty in design.

The mirror is well preserved, exhibiting a warm patina on the wooden frame that adds depth and character. Minor wear consistent with its age is visible, but the overall structure remains solid and the reflective glass retains its clarity.

The dimensions are 100 cm in width, 9 cm in depth, and 175 cm in height (39.4 x 3.5 x 68.9 inches), making it a substantial piece that embodies mid-century Scandinavian values of craftsmanship and natural material expression.
