Plaster Tabletop or Wall Mirror Attributed to Serge Roche, circa 1940

€ 1.375,00

An exquisite French Mid-Century modern biographical vanity or wall mirror in patinated plaster, designed in the distinct neo-baroque style attributed to or in the manner of the legendary French designer Serge Roche, circa 1940.
This captivating mirror features a beautifully sculpted, high-relief plaster frame showcasing dramatic scrollwork, undulating organic contours, and a prominent stylized scallop shell crest at the top. The plaster has aged wonderfully, displaying a rich, warm ivory patina with subtle tonal variations that accentuate its deep, tactile carvings.
A rare and versatile feature of this specific piece is its dual-purpose design. The reverse side retains its original, integrated wooden easel stand, allowing it to function elegantly as a freestanding tabletop or vanity mirror. Concurrently, it features a classic suspension cord, making it equally ready to be mounted as a striking sculptural accent on a wall.
With its poetic geometry and historic charm, this piece perfectly embodies the glamour of the Hollywood Regency era and French mid-century artistry.
