About the Item
A French Louis XVI period giltwood mirror from circa 1790 with carved crest depicting a gardening theme. This French Louis XVI period giltwood mirror, dating back to circa 1790, is a splendid artifact that marries the elegance of giltwood with a pastoral charm. Atop the mirror, a meticulously carved crest reveals a romantic gardening theme. A quaint garden hat takes center stage, flanked by gardening tools including a spade, all set against a backdrop of laurel and oak leaves, symbols of victory and strength. The corners of the frame are adorned with delicately carved rosettes, adding a touch of floral elegance, while the surround is intricately detailed with beads and rais-de-cœur patterns, enhancing its sophisticated appeal.
