DESIGN CONTEXT

The Olaf von Bohr vanity mirror perfectly illustrates the transformation of everyday domestic objects that took place in Italian design during the 1970s. Rather than concealing functional accessories, designers began to celebrate them through expressive forms, bold colours and innovative materials, turning even the simplest household items into sculptural presences.

Designed by Olaf von Bohr for Gedy, this mirror combines a circular tilting mirror with a generous oval tray moulded in glossy red plastic. The integrated base is more than a visual support: it functions as a practical organiser for jewelry, cosmetics, glasses or personal accessories, reflecting the designer’s ability to merge functionality with visual clarity.

Its vibrant red finish highlights the playful optimism that characterised Italian plastic design of the period, while its balanced proportions allow it to sit comfortably in bathrooms, bedrooms, dressing areas or contemporary living spaces. More than a vanity accessory, it becomes an object that naturally defines the surrounding interior.

Within the Natavintage collection, this mirror pairs beautifully with our Gedy accessories, Space Age mirrors and Pop Design objects, while collectors interested in Olaf von Bohr will also discover other original colour variations of this celebrated design.
