The Calvet mirror reflects more than time and place.
In 1902, Antoni Gaudí balanced the modest facade of
the Calvet House with this beautiful mirror. It achieves
a personality of texture and fluid, swirling form. It does
more than reflect: the frame is gilded with gold leaf
and the mirror is hand-shaped to form an artisanal
sculpture that attracts the eye and conveys Gaudí’s
expansive creativity.
The mirror is numbered and accompanied by a
certificate signed by the director of the Gaudí
Cathedra, certifying that it is a faithful and exact
reproduction of the original designed by Antoni Gaudí.
