Decorative scroll feet and a finely detailed crest add just enough ornament, allowing the craftsmanship to speak without excess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGio Ponti, an eclectic visionary, immersed himself in architecture, painting, graphics, and set design from the outset. Graduating in architecture from the Milan Polytechnic in 1920, he co-founded the influential magazine Domus with editor Gianni Mazzocchi in 1926, directing it until his passing. In 1931, Ponti assumed the artistic direction at Luigi Fontana and, in 1932, founded Fontana Arte with Pietro Chiesa, leaving an indelible mark on modern design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"South Loop Loft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52659009913143,"sku":null,"price":1800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/0135\/0967\/files\/6YOrYRuDjJylSpNICJonvsCDNg8ALiX5vr5tYIRQlD0.jpg?v=1784905738","url":"https:\/\/thesouthlooploft.com\/products\/italian-brass-vanity-mirror-attributed-to-gio-ponti-1940s","provider":"South Loop Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
