Made of limewood with exquisite plaster appliqués and gilt detailing, this piece seamlessly blends bold geometry, intricate craftsmanship, and decorative opulence, reflecting the signature style of the Art Deco era.
The mirror's limewood frame is skillfully carved with rhythmic, sculptural forms inspired by the modernist aesthetic of the time.
