The frame features tightly wrapped, diagonally braided pencil reed arranged in a rhythmic swirl pattern, punctuated by four raised reed “collars” that create subtle dimensionality and unmistakable Crespi flair.

Warm natural tones, gentle aging, and beautifully varied reed patina give this mirror a relaxed yet refined presence—perfect for Palm Beach Regency, Mediterranean Revival, California organic modern, or coastal bohemian interiors. At 41 inches, it’s an impactful size for anchoring an entryway, above a console, in a living room, or lanai.

Sturdy, substantial, and visually rich—this is the kind of vintage pencil-reed craftsmanship. Other influences: Karl Springer, known for rattan, reed, cane, raffia, and lacquered natural materials; Tommi Parzinger (Late Era / Parzinger Originals), for the sculptural, rounded, luxe quality found in his later organic-modern pieces; Paul Frankl, his 1940s–1950s rattan “Pretzel” and wrapped designs created the entire aesthetic foundation for modern coastal and tropical modern design; Ficks Reed.
