Milo CM Mirror
Carlo Mollino designed the Milo CM in 1937, drawing its outline directly from the Venus de Milo. The silhouette moves away from the rectangle that dominates mirror design, arriving instead at something organic and distinctly bodily. The reference is not decorative. Mollino believed that beauty carried physical memory, and this mirror is an expression of that conviction.
Made in crystal mirror with a stainless steel pawl for wall mounting, the piece is light in construction and precise in finish. Its curved form reads differently depending on the wall it occupies, shifting between sculptural object and functional mirror as the eye moves across it.
- Designed by Carlo Mollino, 1937
- Crystal mirror construction
- Stainless steel wall-mount pawl
- Silhouette derived from the Venus de Milo
Mollino remains one of the most singular figures in twentieth-century Italian design, working across architecture, furniture, photography, and aeronautics with a consistent obsession with the human form. The Milo CM carries that obsession into the most everyday of objects.
