Scilla & Cariddi Hand-Crafted Mirrors Blend Ceramic, Sponge, and Textile in Myth-Inspired Design

Inspired by the Mediterranean marine myths of Scilla and Cariddi, a new collection of hand-crafted mirrors merges ceramic, sponge, and textile accents to create sculptural pieces that transform the act of looking at oneself. The mirrors, featured by designboom, are designed to produce an interplay of reflections that alters the viewer’s encounter with their own image, making each glance a dynamic experience rather than a static one. By incorporating unexpected materials like sponge and textile alongside ceramic, the pieces challenge conventional notions of mirror design and invite tactile and visual exploration. This approach not only pays homage to ancient storytelling but also positions the mirrors as functional art objects that can redefine interior spaces. As interest in artisanal, narrative-driven home decor continues to grow, such designs highlight the enduring appeal of craftsmanship and mythology in contemporary design.
