$6,400
About
Elevate your interior with this grand and elegant antique giltwood mirror. Crafted in France circa 1860 in the refined Louis XVI style and standing an impressive 5.5 feet tall, the arched frame is crowned with an intricately carved crest featuring a classical cartouche-shaped shield flanked by scrolling acanthus leaves and draped floral garlands. A delicate beaded trim surrounds the original mirror plate, bordered by a laurel leaf motif along the outer edge. The hand-applied gold leaf finish has developed a soft, timeworn patina, with minor wear consistent with age. Retaining its original mercury glass and wood backing, the mirror reflects the fine craftsmanship of the 19th century and possesses a commanding presence. Measuring 66.25 inches high by 36.25 inches wide and 7 inches deep, this stately Louis XVI mirror brings timeless elegance and scale to a mantel, foyer, or dressing area. Excellent condition commensurate with age and use.
