A rare glazed ceramic wall mirror bearing the signature of Mithé Espelt, an emblematic figure of 20th-century French decorative arts.
This "Baroque" model, created in the 1950s, perfectly illustrates the artist's poetic and refined style: a composition of flowing, asymmetrical forms, enhanced by a sumptuous deep blue glaze with nuanced reflections, and adorned with delicate gold leaf borders. The cabochons and inlays in pearly tones bring light and depth to the piece, creating a play of textures characteristic of Mithé Espelt's work.
At the crossroads of art and decorative object, this mirror is a sought-after collector's item, emblematic of the post-war revival of French decorative arts. Its timeless aesthetic allows it to integrate seamlessly into both classic and contemporary interiors. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
