Eric Maville Octagonal Mirror
Eric Maville Octagonal Mirror
The octagonal wall mirror designed by Eric Maville in the 1970s that beautifully combines modern materials and design aesthetics of that era but still keeps its contemporary look. The mirror's shape, an octagon, adds a touch of uniqueness and sophistication, setting it apart from traditional rectangular or circular mirrors.
The frame of the mirror is crafted from black acrylic giving it a contemporary feel. Enhancing the acrylic frame is a brass strip that runs along the centre providing an elegant accent. The use of acrylic in the 1970s reflects the era's fascination with futuristic and space-age designs. The combination of the octagonal shape, acrylic frame, and brass strip makes this wall mirror a statement piece and even today, it retains its appeal as a timeless and captivating piece of design.
Eric Maville's designs showcase a keen eye for detail and an ability to balance aesthetics and functionality. His designs adorned many stylish homes of the 1970s and later and his work often featured in major publications.
