  • Lovely Huge Hardwood Full Length Mirror Gold-Plated Chrome Detailing
    Located in GB
    We are delighted to offer for sale this stunning full length solid hard wood wall mirror with gold plated and chrome detailing A very good looking and well made piece, this mirror came from a Chelsea mansion home that was set up by the then richest women in England, the house was for visiting friends and family only, it was only ever used maybe five times in twenty years, as such they decided to sell the property and the contents. All the furniture was premium and very high end, mostly Baker Furniture, David Linley and a couple of other distinguished designers. This mirror doesn’t have the original makers label on so I don’t know who made it, judging by the home it will be someone known The frame is solid hardwood, it has a gold plated trim with a chrome lining that looks very sophisticated. The glass is nice and thick and has a great colour to it. They had the mirror fitted to the wall landscape above a huge...
