Shaped Art Deco Mirrors

Art Deco - An Eclectic Style

The Art Deco style was first seen in France in the 1920's but quickly spread across the globe and influenced all areas of design including fashion, jewellery, architecture and interiors. It was very much an eclectic style which drew on influences from other artistic movements and traditional art and imagery from many regions of the world and you can see this throughout our selection of Art Deco shaped mirrors.

Geometric & Striking Shapes

Art Deco was characterised by bold geometric shapes, angular patterns and forms, striking features, strong colour contrasts and luxurious ornamentation. Designs often included stepped profiles, zigzags and chevrons and it was style that came to epitomise glamour and class. It was the look of ocean liners, luxury hotels and landmark buildings but as the years past and the World enter the great depression in the 1930's economic circumstances demanded the use of cheaper, modern materials. To achieve this opulent look you can install a striking shaped mirror into your room and combine it with other popular materials of the time such as exotic woods, sharkskin textures, lacquer, precious metals and of course mirrored glass were very popular.
