Chaty Vallauris - Mirror - Gilt brass - Sun Mirror

Grand sun mirror Chaty Vallauris This emblematic model of French art was produced in the 1950s–1960s. This exemplar is large-sized: 85 cm in diameter for the largest rays, with a very beautiful patina. The Châty brand specialized in sun mirrors in gilded metal. The inscription on the back, « CHATY VALLAURIS A.M. » (A.M. for Alpes-Maritimes), attests to its authenticity. It is one of the few sun-mirror manufacturers of that era to consistently sign the backing board or rear panel of its creations, making it a certified and sought-after piece. The rays are made of gilded metal. They are arranged in a sheaf of alternating lengths for a very successful dynamic effect. The central mirror is bulged, often called a “witch mirror” (or witch’s eye), typical of these productions. It reflects light in a very particular way and adds depth. It is surrounded by a twisted molding, and by another smooth one. It measures 24 cm in diameter. The twisted molding that frames the central mirror is also a classic visual signature of the flagship Châty models. Some rays are slightly bent. An iconic object for decorating your interior.
