This striking and grand antique French mirror, dating to around 1892, exudes elegance with its imposing presence. The beautifully crafted, ebonised frame is accentuated by a refined silver gilt finish, making it an impressive focal point for any space. The ornate, stepped pediment features an intricate combination of laurel and oak leaves, crowned by a central cartouche adorned with a classical face.
Flanking the pediment are classical Campana-style urns set upon delicate florettes, while the stiles are embellished with intricate floral motifs that culminate in bold Acanthus leaf decorations. The mirror retains its original glass, and the reverse side bears a dated trade label.
This attractive piece is perfect as either a floor or overmantel mirror, enhancing any room with its historical charm and craftsmanship.
