Description

Condition

Overall excellent original condition. The highly sculptural wooden frame to the mirror with greater nuance and depth than it shows in the catalogue illustration. With wonderful scale and balance between the frame and mirror. The wooden frame showing a few small and minor shallow surface scratches consistent with gentle use and handling. A wonderful encapsulation of the ideas of Wendell Castle in a small scale deeply sculptural design.
