1960s Italian wall mirror by Albert Leclerc for Planula

Italian vintage wall mirror by Albert Leclerc for Planula

This Italian vintage wall mirror was designed by Albert Leclerc for Planula in the 1960s. Its bold sunburst-inspired silhouette captures the essence of Italian postwar design, where sculptural forms and playful geometry became hallmarks of modern interiors. Both decorative and functional, it stands as a rare collectible that adds personality and presence to any space.

Sculptural sunburst design

The mirror features a round central glass framed by radiating wooden spokes, evoking the rising sun. With its elegant pale wood finish, this design embodies both lightness and strength, making it a statement piece for modernist, eclectic, or contemporary interiors. Its form reflects the era’s fascination with sculptural, organic-inspired shapes, balancing utility with artistic flair.

Italian craftsmanship and design context

Produced by Planula in Italy, the piece showcases the innovation and artisanal quality of 1960s Italian design. Designers of the era often reinterpreted classical motifs into modern forms, blending tradition with forward-thinking creativity. Albert Leclerc’s mirror exemplifies this approach, transforming a timeless sunburst motif into a minimalist and highly architectural object.
