Product description
This is a rare and collectible Art Nouveau table mirror, titled "The First Cuckoo," also known as the "Echo Mirror." This piece dates back to the early 20th century and exemplifies the Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) style. A classic WMF tin model still in very good condtion, including the original stand on the backside.
Dimensions: 36 cm x 27 cm
The mirror frame features a detailed depiction of a maiden on the right side, dressed in a flowing robe, leaning toward the mirror with her left hand placed near her ear, as if listening for the echo. The reflection of her face is beautifully captured in the mirror. Delicate floral decorations adorn the top right and bottom left corners of the frame, further enhancing the elegance of the design.
The mirror retains its original wooden backing and frame, with a support arm attached to allow it to stand on a table. The back of one foot features maker’s marks, indicating a 94% purity of metal. This particular version was made by Geria, a renowned metalware manufacturer. It is also illustrated in "Art Nouveau Domestic Design from Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik," published by the Antique Collectors Club (page 295, catalogue number 131).
The mirror is in good condition, with its original facet mirror intact, making it a beautiful and functional piece of decor. The detailed craftsmanship, purity markings, and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item.
