Vintage Jo Mead Painted Composite Pretzel and Crown Mirrored Bakery Trade Sign
Pretzel and crown with cross trade sign mirror circa 1960s by Jo (Josephine) Mead, a trailblazer of female design entrepreneurship whose eponymous ‘Jo Mead Designs’ began in Illinois in the 1940s and employed multiple artists to reproduce important antique decorative objects to make them widely available at a reasonable price point.
In this case, a familiar English bakers trade sign bearing the pretzel with crown motif has been refashioned as a mirror.
The composite frame was mold casted gold leafed and later hand painted with red and green crown details.
Though many of Jo Mead’s designs were mass produced, this piece is a lesser seen example in excellent, original condition with warm patina to the paint and a few small spots to the mirror glass itself. Only one other significantly smaller example in distressed condition has been identified.
Signed “Jo Mead” to the reverse.

Vintage Leather Barcelona Daybed
Circa 1970s Barcelona Daybed after Mies Van Der Rohe. The piece is very well constructed utilizing real leather straps and upholstery with button tufted detail with stainless steel braces and chromed steel cylindrical feet.
Leather shows nice age / natural patina with wear consistent with use (spotting, a patch of discoloration, small white spots in place where the leather has worn down, and a small hole on the border). Additionally, two straps on one side that connect the cushion to the frame have separated, but remain affixed to the frame, as shown. This only prevents the cushion from attaching to the frame on one side and is not a required feature for use. (Cushion stays in place without the second set of straps.)
Overall, very good, vintage condition – usable as is without the need for reupholstery.
Obtained from the original owner, who acquired the piece in the 1970s.
