Empire Cheval Mirror

About the Item

In walnut with ebonized trim, this stately mirror has exquisite lines and exemplifies the design motifs of the period. Burl walnut surrounds the glass that has survived more or less intact through two centuries and shows only a small amount of deterioration here and there. Grecian design influence starts at the pediment top flanked by ebonized urns above Spartan relief carvings and continues down to the delicate legs with paw feet.
