Made of hand-woven rattan and wicker, it features an elaborate oval design with three concentric levels of intertwined filigree that evoke organic motifs and the natural rhythms of the French Riviera.

Handcrafted in the South of France between the 1960s and 1970s, this piece stands out for the precision of its weaving and the harmony of its structure. The honey tones of the rattan, combined with delicate accents of dark fiber, create an elegant and warm contrast, typical of the naturalistic furniture associated with the Mediterranean and tropical style of the era.

The mirror retains its original patina, a testament to its authenticity and the passage of time. Its surface reflects light with a softness characteristic of pieces made with organic materials, blending seamlessly into boho-chic, coastal, or mid-century interiors.

In excellent condition, with no breaks or deformations, and the original glass intact. A rare and highly decorative piece, difficult to find in this oval format with such a fine and complete weave. Ideal for interiors with character—from spaces with a natural aesthetic to contemporary eclectic environments—evoking the free and sensual spirit of the 1970s. See less
