Antique French Trumeau Mirror Original Paint and Gilding Unrestored Late 1800's

About the Item

Antique French trumeau mirror that was hand-made during the mid to late-1800’s and miraculously still wears its original paint and gilding. However, the same cannot be said for the mirror, for it was definitely replaced and we are so-so on the painting. Although the trumeau’s painting is very old, we think it pre-dates the trumeau and are not sure it is original to the trumeau. Trumeau mirrors were created during the late 1700’s and were typically used over a fireplace mantel or between two windows. **Please note missing gilding on the top right decoration, images 5 and 6.

  • Antique Cupboard from Ireland Great Patina Unrestored Original Paint, C1800's
    Located in Chicago, IL
    The Antique Cupboard that was removed from a home we believe may have been in Scotland. The Antique Cabinet, or Cupboard was located in Ireland, but upon cleaning out the Antique Painted Cupboard, we found receipts from the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland dated 1967. Certainly not definitive, however, the cabinet is absolutely from the British Isles and more than that, is the fact that no one has attempted to restore, or worse yet, refinish the cupboard. The Patina of Old Original Paint is quite impressive and I only wish we could duplicate it. This Painted Antique Cupboard...
