These Me Mirrors by Mathias Hahn demonstrate how even minimalist objects can embody charm and humor. There may not be much to them physically, but their design has been infused with historic and symbolic references.
Looking rather like magnifying glasses with entirely reflective faces, the heads of the domestic accessories are equipped with wooden handles that stick out to the side. These are intended to be gripped and rotated so that the user can orient the looking glass up or down.
Two different sizes of stands turn the Me Mirrors into either a tabletop or a standing floor model. In gripping the handle and moving it side to side, you can also pivot the reflector from left to right without having to move yourself or the base of the antique-inspired object.
