Art Deco / Streamline Moderne Mirror in the Style of Donald Deskey, c. 1935–1945
A rare and visually striking example of late Art Deco design, this mirror features a border of deep vitreous cobalt blue mirrored glass — richly pigmented and fused into the glass itself — framed by sleek, curved aluminum corner mounts that exemplify the Streamline Moderne aesthetic of the 1930s and early 1940s.
The mirror’s bold geometric layout and use of industrial materials reflect the influence of designers like Donald Deskey, who brought modernist glamour into everyday interiors. Its symmetrical design, visible rivet details, and machine-finished mounts suggest production by a quality American mirror manufacturer, likely based in upstate New York or Pennsylvania.
Condition: In very good vintage condition with minor age-related wear and a beautiful retained sheen in both the glass and aluminum. No cracks or clouding in the glass; some light desilvering, adding an age acquired patina.
