Swedish Rosewood Wall Mirror by Glas & Trä, 1950s
A Swedish wall mirror from the 1950s, produced by Glas & Trä in Hovmantorp, Sweden.
The deep reddish-brown rosewood is carefully worked into a structured rectangular form, with stepped corners and fine brass-toned rods introducing a subtle rhythm around the mirror.
The contrast between the polished wood, slender metal details, and open expanses of glass gives the piece a sense of lightness. Rather than functioning as a purely decorative frame, the construction becomes part of the mirror itself, creating depth and shadow as the eye moves around its perimeter.
Its vertical proportions make it particularly effective in an entryway, dressing area, or above a console, where the generous scale can extend the sense of height within a room.
About Glas & Trä
Glas & Trä was a Swedish manufacturer based in Hovmantorp, in the Småland region of Sweden, known for its combination of glass and finely crafted woodwork.
Founded in 1943 by Gösta Franzén and a group of local partners, the company began production in a former sawmill, initially specializing in decorative glass trays before expanding into furniture and interior objects. Its collection came to include hall furniture, mirrors, tables, and decorative pieces, often combining hand-finished glass with teak, mahogany, rosewood, and other fine woods.
Glas & Trä became particularly recognized for its sculptural mirrors with hand-ground facets, richly finished wood frames, gilded details, and marble accents, reflecting the refined craftsmanship and understated elegance of Swedish mid-century design.
