An elegant long-form wall mirror dating from around the 1960s–70s, combining a frameless mirror plate with a shaped laminated plywood backing.
The design is defined by its unusually slender, gently tapering profile — widening towards the top and terminating in softly rounded ends. The exposed laminated edge provides the only decorative detail, allowing the construction itself to become part of the design.
