A large custom smoked mirror in vintage early 20th century frame designed and produced by James Mont for the King Cole Penthouse in Miami, Florida in 1963. The smoked mirror is of exceptional quality surrounded by a beautiful antiqued gold leaf frame. Mont was known for using antique and found objects in his creations and this is a dramatic example of his decorative work. This mirror will add a substantial dose of mystery and glamour to any interior.
In excellent original condition this dramatic entrance or foyer cabinet epitomizes the dark elegance of designer James Mont. A tall slender single door cabinet with adjustable shelves in ebonized and cerused oak features a lit glass-top that up-lights a heavily smoked scalloped wall-mounted mirror. The effect is pure drama that only Mont could create – works beautifully in a very small space.
A Smoked mirrored console by James Mont, c 1950s, features hand carved Caryatid side supports and scrolled pulls.
