The Persona Sculptural Mirror Eclipse by MILA ZILA is a luminous glass wall piece that explores reflection, movement, and the expressive potential of hand blown glass. Created through an intuitive process where molten glass is freely gathered, spun, and shaped, each mirror develops its own organic character, with the hollow glass body internally silvered using a traditional mirroring technique to transform the piece into both functional mirror and sculptural artwork. Rooted in spontaneity and the natural behaviour of glass, the Persona collection allows the material to form itself in fluid layers, resulting in a unique object that captures light, depth, and personality within its irregular, sculptural silhouette.

About the Designer
MILA ZILA is the artistic practice of visual artist and glass designer Ľudmila Žilková, based in Northern Bohemia, where a deep regional glassmaking heritage informs her contemporary approach to sculptural design. Working primarily with hand-blown glass, she treats the material as a living element that captures light, shapes space, and transforms depending on movement, gravity, and the surrounding environment.
Her process balances traditional craftsmanship with experimentation, allowing fire, intuition, and the natural behaviour of glass to guide the formation of each work. Rooted in respect for generational craft traditions and sustainable local production, MILA ZILA’s pieces explore the tension between material and form, stability and transformation, creating timeless objects that engage light, perception, and the human experience.
