Pier Luigi Colli Console Mirror with Glass Shelves for Cristal Arte, Italy, c.1950s

An exceptionally rare and elegant wall-mounted console mirror designed by Pier Luigi Colli for Cristal Arte, Italy, circa 1950s. Beautifully handcrafted, this sculptural piece features Colli's distinctive gilt wrought iron frame, formed into graceful looping motifs that surround a bronze-tinted mirror and support two shaped glass display shelves.

Three original circular glass-fronted hooks project from the mirror, providing both functionality and an unmistakably architectural aesthetic. The combination of hand-forged iron, mirrored glass, and floating shelves exemplifies the refined craftsmanship and artistic innovation that made Cristal Arte one of Italy's most celebrated glass manufacturers.

Both decorative and practical, this exceptional piece is ideal for an entry hall, dressing room, or luxurious interior, serving as a mirror, display shelf, and coat rack in one sculptural composition. A highly collectible and seldom-seen example of Italian Mid-Century design by one of the period's most acclaimed designers.

Condition: This is a vintage piece and, as such, displays signs of wear consistent with its age and use. There is some foxing to the mirror, along with light scratches and surface wear, all of which are consistent with its vintage character and authenticity.
