Vintage Triple Oval Ornate Gold Wall Mirror Hollywood Regency
Located in Portsmouth, VA
This dramatic triple-oval mirror is more than a reflection — it’s a statement. With ornate scrollwork, sweeping curves, and rich golden tones, it evokes the timeless glamour of a Parisian dressing room or a grand European salon.
Measuring 66 inches wide, the scale alone makes an unforgettable impression. Intricately molded acanthus leaves and interlocking oval frames create a sculptural silhouette that dances with light and shadow — elevating everything around it.
Though crafted from a lightweight molded resin composite to mimic the look of hand-carved wood, the mirror offers the visual weight of an antique gilded piece — without the fragility of plaster or the heaviness of solid wood. The finish is a warm antique gold that adds depth and glow to any space.
Attributed to Bassett Furniture and dating to the 1960s, this mirror is unmarked but aligns closely with other known examples from the era. It was previously styled in an upscale East Coast estate powder room, where it served as the centerpiece above a custom vanity...

New and Vintage Plastic Furniture and Decor
Arguably the world’s most ubiquitous man-made material, plastic has impacted nearly every industry. In contemporary spaces, new and vintage plastic furniture is quite popular and its use pairs well with a range of design styles.
From the Italian lighting artisans at Fontana Arte to venturesome Scandinavian modernists such as Verner Panton, who created groundbreaking interiors as much as he did seating — see his revolutionary Panton chair — to contemporary multidisciplinary artists like Faye Toogood, furniture designers have been pushing the boundaries of plastic forever.
When The Graduate's Mr. McGuire proclaimed, “There’s a great future in plastics,” it was more than a laugh line. The iconic quote is an allusion both to society’s reliance on and its love affair with plastic. Before the material became an integral part of our lives — used in everything from clothing to storage to beauty and beyond — people relied on earthly elements for manufacturing, a process as time-consuming as it was costly.
Soon after American inventor John Wesley Hyatt created celluloid, which could mimic luxury products like tortoiseshell and ivory, production hit fever pitch, and the floodgates opened for others to explore plastic’s full potential. The material altered the history of design — mid-century modern legends Charles and Ray Eames, Joe Colombo and Eero Saarinen regularly experimented with plastics in the development of tables and chairs, and today plastic furnishings and decorative objects are seen as often indoors as they are outside.
