About the Item

This striking pair of Regency Revival convex mirrors, likely dating to the late 19th century, offers a refined interpretation of the traditional Regency convex mirror aesthetic. More restrained than their early 19th-century counterparts, each features a robust, circular hardwood frame, recently refreshed in black paint, giving the pair a bold yet classic presence. An inner giltwood slip provides an elegant accent, enhancing the dramatic curve of the large, bulging convex glass mirror plates. A distinctive feature lies in the backs, which are fashioned from painted floorboards, possibly reclaimed from a ship, infusing the mirrors with unique antique character and an intriguing narrative. Measuring an impressive 96 cm in diameter and 10 cm in depth, these antique convex mirrors command attention and bring architectural interest to both traditional and modern interiors. Condition is good, with evidence of past restoration consistent with age and careful preservation. The convex mirror plates exhibit gentle ageing, retaining clarity and a subtle, desirable patina that underscores their 19th-century origin and authentic Regency style charm. A fine addition for collectors, designers, or anyone seeking statement pieces with period elegance and versatile decorative appeal, these black convex mirrors blend historical allure with timeless decorative potential
