Exceptional Venetian Etched Mirror, Murano, Italy, circa 1930s

An exquisite octagonal Venetian mirror, handcrafted on the island of Murano, Italy, and showcasing the extraordinary artistry synonymous with traditional Venetian glassmaking. Rich in decorative detail, the mirror features beautifully hand-etched mirrored glass panels adorned with elegant foliate motifs, framed by intricately twisted glass borders and finished with individually hand-blown Murano glass flowers and ribbon motifs.

The sculptural floral embellishments, together with the finely engraved decoration, create a sophisticated interplay of texture, light and reflection, making this mirror an exceptional statement piece. Delicate traces of the original gold leaf detailing remain on several of the hand-blown flowers, further enhancing its authentic character and timeless elegance.

Presented in very good vintage condition, the mirror displays minor signs of wear consistent with its age. Please note that one of the hand-blown flowers has a single missing petal, a small imperfection that does not detract from the overall beauty or rarity of the piece.

A remarkable example of authentic Venetian craftsmanship, this mirror is equally suited to traditional, Mid-Century and contemporary interiors.
