About the Item

Large antique antler standing mirror, Germany, ca. 1890 A great antique Black Forest antler standing mirror manufactured in Germany around 1890.

Measures: Width: 31.5" (80cm) Height: 55.12" (140cm) Depth: 23.62" (60cm) At the beginning of the 19th century the European nobility discovered antler furnishings for their hunting castles and countryseats. The furniture was either manufactured completely from e.g. stag antler, or it was decorated with antler pieces from the stag, deer, fallow deer and others to get a hunting design. A famous example was the interior design of 'Jagdschloss Platte' (hunting castle platte) of count William of Nassau near Wiesbaden, Germany in 1825.
