Italian Polished Brass and Brushed Steel Wall Mirror, 1970s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

1970s Italian in the style of Romeo Rega rectangular free-standing dressing table mirror in polished brass and brushed steel. The mirror could easily be converted to a wall mirror if required. The mirror sits within a brushed steel frame which is suspended inside the brass outer frame and held in place with a single piece of square steel. The felt back is removable to access the mirror if required. A beautiful and well made modernist mirror from a renowned designer. In good vintage condition. The brass has a wonderful patina with some very small surface scratches.. The stand on the back is a little flimsy but does stand it in place. I will fit some hooks to allow it to hang on the wall. Dimensions: W: 40cm D: 1 1/2cm H: 50cm

About the Creator

Romeo Rega

Born in 1904, Italian designer Romeo Rega is one of several 1970s-era designers that are associated with a combination of modernism and glamour in their furniture creations. Rega epitomizes this style, his brand is said to have been launched on the December 31st, 1969, producing lighting, chairs, tables, and display cabinets identified by his double “R” logo, ceasing production in 1981. Though little is known of his personal or professional life, Rega’s legacy has not been lost, with the arrival of his designs to vintage and collector’s auctions.

Rega’s furniture is characterized by geometric shapes and reduced forms. His designs are almost always gilded, chromed, or brass-plated, which adds the allure and elegance that Rega is known for, to his clean-lined modernist pieces. Although there is little verifiable information, some sources believe that Rega worked with designer-to-the-stars Willy Rizzo and prolific designer Gabriella Crespi , as all three designers espouse very similar aesthetics. With many entertainment-focused pieces, such as coffee tables with display space and liquor cabinets, occasional tables, etageres, and decorative table lamps, Rega’s work is popular among lovers of Hollywood Regency and 1970s design.
