Venetian Style Gargantua Mirror
Craftsmanship and Made in Italy
The absurd, the exaggerated, the maximalism of the openly Camp atmospheres combined with the evocative journey into the world of fairy tales revisited in a Baroque style.
These are the ingredients of Fairy Tales, the third Capsule designed by Leo De Carlo and created by Arte Veneziana. The undisputed protagonist is the mirror, painstakingly handmade that responds to the rule of excess. More is more.
This is how the mirrors were born, hyper-engraved, hyper-decorated unique pieces made in colours that wink at fashion and are well suited to minimal or eclectic interiors: environments in which the search for the magical piece is king.
This is how these hyper-engraved, hyper-decorated unique pieces were born, crafted in colors that wink at fashion and perfectly suit both minimalist and eclectic interiors—environments where the hunt for that one magical piece is king.
