About the Item

An English convex mirror from the 19th century, distinguished by its bold neoclassical design and original giltwood frame. This round mirror measures 35.25 inches in diameter and features a dramatic profile with a depth of 4.5 inches, offering a strong visual presence in any interior. The frame is adorned with two concentric rings of ebonized wooden balls—commonly known as ebonized bosses—set against a gilded background. Between them, a finely textured foliate band adds depth and contrast, subtly catching the light. The gilt surface displays age-appropriate wear and patina, lending authenticity and historic character to the piece. A convex mirror of this scale and age naturally distorts reflections, enhancing light dispersion and drawing the eye across the room—a hallmark of Regency and early Victorian interiors where such mirrors often flanked mantelpieces or hung above sideboards. The back remains covered in its original paper and timber construction, and the piece is fitted with wire for hanging. A compelling decorative accent for a hallway, living room, or formal dining space, this mirror brings both sculptural form and historical gravitas.
