Mirror
Elegant rotatable wall mirror produced in Sweden during the 1950s. Combining clean Scandinavian modernist lines with carefully selected natural materials, the design balances functionality and craftsmanship through its restrained yet highly refined construction. The mirror is suspended within a brass wall bracket, allowing the glass panel to pivot and be adjusted as desired, making it equally suitable for hallways, bedrooms, dressing areas, or bathrooms.
The mirror is framed in beautifully figured elm, displaying a rich warm brown tone with pronounced grain patterns that animate the otherwise minimalist form. The gently rounded corners and slim profile emphasize the quality of the timber while maintaining a light visual expression. The warm brass mounting bracket provides an elegant contrast to the wood and develops a subtle patina that enhances the piece’s vintage character.
The construction reflects the Scandinavian design ethos of the period, where practical everyday objects were elevated through thoughtful proportions and honest materials. The adjustable mounting system not only adds versatility but also creates an appealing floating effect, allowing the mirror to project slightly from the wall while showcasing the elegant brass framework from the sides.
The mirror remains in good vintage condition with minor signs of age and use. The elm frame displays a well-preserved surface with light wear consistent with age, while the brass bracket shows a natural patina. The mirrored glass retains good clarity and character, with small age-related specks and marks visible upon close inspection, contributing to the authenticity of the piece.
