Mirror

This rare wall mirror was produced by Glas & Trä Hovmantorp in Sweden during the 1950s, a period marked by Scandinavian design’s focus on simplicity, craftsmanship, and organic forms. The piece exemplifies mid-century aesthetics through its refined materials and elegant silhouette, showcasing the exceptional woodworking traditions for which Swedish design became internationally renowned.

The mirror features a sculptural teak frame with a distinctive elongated oval shape, tapering to soft points at the top and bottom. The warm tones and rich grain of the teak highlight the natural beauty of the wood, while the subtle curvature of the frame creates a harmonious balance between form and function. The depth of the frame adds a sense of dimension and craftsmanship, elevating the mirror from a functional object to a decorative statement.

Its minimal yet striking design reflects the mid-century Scandinavian approach to interiors, where natural materials and thoughtful detailing were prioritized to create timeless, versatile pieces. This mirror remains a rare example from Glas & Trä Hovmantorp’s production and a fine representation of Swedish modern design.
