CALVET MIRROR

Design By Antoni Gaudí

In contrast with what happened in general to almost all the Modernistai rended up going out of fashion, furniture designed by Gaudí is still as modern today as it was when it was first designed.

The Calvet mirror is numbered and accompanied by a certificate, signed by the director of the Gaudí Cathedra, certifying that they are a faithful and exact reproduction of the original designed by Antoni Gaudí.

ANTONI GAUDÍ

Antoni Gaudí (1852 - 1926) is among the most internationally famous Spanish architects, his unorthodox approach is still considered ground-breaking to this day.

His ingenious architectural solutions saw him getting involved him with all the decorative elements of his projects, including furniture.

Over the years the great admiration of many modern designers for Gaudí furniture was understood by BD, which was the first company to rescue these historical artefacts creating a handcrafted series of reproductions using the same materials, varnished solid oak, including a whole wealth of details used in the manufacture of the originals.

At BD contemporary creations have always gone hand-in-hand with those of the revered classical masters. Its re-editions of designs by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Adolf Loos, Josef Hoffmann and Giuseppe Terragni were already very well known.

However, even more outstanding is the work behind the first production of the fascinating furniture created by Gaudí for some of his more iconic works.
