Shield-shaped wall mirror, European production, 1930s–40s

Wall mirror with a distinctive shield-shaped silhouette, featuring a shaped profile defined by concave curves at the upper and lower ends. The shaped mirror plate is secured directly to the wooden backing with small exposed metal fittings. European production, 1930s–40s. Dating from the 1930s–40s, this European-made wall mirror stands out for its slender shield-shaped silhouette and the lightness of its construction. The shaped mirror plate is left visually unobstructed by a conventional surrounding frame, emphasizing the purity and continuity of its distinctive outline. Straight sides transition into concave curves at the top and bottom, joined by carefully shaped corners that give the mirror its characteristic geometry. The mirror plate is mounted directly onto a wooden backing and secured around the perimeter by small exposed metal fittings, discreet details that contribute to the refined simplicity of the design. The back retains its wooden structure and wire hanging system. Good condition. It may show signs of age. Please pay attention to the photographs. AG136
