Sun Mirror
A sunburst mirror is a decorative mirror that features a circular shape with a sunray arrangement around the central mirror. The mirror itself can be convex (curved outward) or concave (curved inward).
Sunburst mirrors were particularly popular in the 1920s, the era of Art Deco. They were often used as wall decorations in living rooms, hallways, or foyers.
The described sunburst mirror with a gold-colored bronzed wood frame and convex mirror glass was likely manufactured around 1920. The convex shape of the mirror glass creates a magnifying effect and reflects light in an interesting way. The golden frame and sunray arrangement fit well with the Art Deco style, which is known for its geometric shapes and love of glamour and opulence.
The style of the 1920s, also known as the “Roaring Twenties” or “Jazz Age,” was a time of cultural change and social freedom. Fashion was characterized by short dresses, pearl necklaces, and flat shoes for women, while men mostly wore suits and ties.
Overall, the 1920s were an exciting time of change and experimentation in art, architecture, and design. The style of this time is still used today as a source of inspiration for modern designs and trends.
