Designed by Sergio Rodrigues in 1968, the “Dressing Room” Mirror is a rare and striking example of his ability to fuse architectural scale with intimate function. Executed in solid wood with a central rosewood finish, the mirror’s frame is punctuated by a symmetrical series of circular insets, originally conceived as sockets for embedded lamps—evoking the theatrical vanity mirrors of classic dressing rooms.
While minimalist in form, the mirror embodies a strong sculptural presence through its material weight and proportional clarity. It stands as both a functional object and a modernist interpretation of the rituals of self-reflection.
Sergio Rodrigues (1927–2014) remains one of the foremost figures in Brazilian modern design. His creations, always grounded in natural materials and Brazilian identity, reflect a vision where furniture merges architecture, culture, and daily life. This mirror adds an unexpected yet powerful accent to his repertoire, blending luxury with essentialism.
