Found at a mermaid's home — she decided to move back to the ocean and left this behind. A sculptural plaster mirror in the form of a scalloped shell, with radiating rib detail and a pair of carved wave scrolls at the base. The kind of piece that feels like it washed ashore from a villa bathroom somewhere along the Amalfi Coast — sun-bleached, textural, and completely unselfconscious. Matte blush-cream finish with the soft chalky surface that only real plaster develops over time. Oval mirror inset with original hardware. Works propped on a vanity, leaned against a shelf, or hung as a small statement piece.
• Time Period: c. 1980s
• Origin: Likely American or Italian decorative
• Design Style: Coastal / Mediterranean Revival
• Dimensions: Approx. 10" H/W\
• Condition: Good vintage condition. Minor surface wear consistent with age. Mirror is clear and intact. Structurally sound.
• Collection: La Tropicana
• Category: Vintage finds
Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.
