Antique 19th Century French Grain Painted Mahogany Louis Philippe Mirror

About the Item

This beautiful Louis Philippe mirror was made in Northern France in the late 1800s. The mirror has a solid pine frame that was smoothened with gesso. The mirror frame is painted to resemble warm brown mahogany wood. The mirror is in a beautifully weathered antique state with a deep luster and rich patina. In the corners, the paint has slightly cracked, and there is some weathering, particularly along the inner edge, which appears worn. The weathered antique appearance of the frame complements the highly weathered glass splendidly. If desired, the glass pane can be replaced with a new one at no additional cost. The mirror has the original 19th-century thick glass plate with silver nitrate gilding. The glass plate is very weathered and has many small spots and a few shallow scratches. The mirror has a new pine back cladding. The mirror is in good antique condition. The glass was removed and the piece was gently cleaned inside and out.

19th Century French Louis Philippe Mirror in Antique White
Located in Casteren, NL
This beautiful antique French Louis Philippe mirror has an ornate crest on top and floral ornaments in both lower corners. The gadrooned frame has a pearl beading surrounding the outer edge. This mirror is made in the south of France circa 1850 and is an early Louis Philippe mirror. The crest is not made in one mold, but it is composed out of multiple ornaments. Also, the mixture used to cast the molds has a big part of ground cattlebone. Later mirrors, when the demand for such mirror was increased significantly, had crests cast in one mold and the cattle bone was replaced for chalk. This mirror frame has been cleaned from its original golden color. The off-white color is the color of the raw material. The frame has been colored with an off-white patina to smoothen the color. The whole mirror frame now has a pastel white finish with nice patina. The glass has been renewed circa 20...
