Antique Late 19th Century Pale Gold Northern French Louis Philippe Mirror
About the Item
A beautiful and rare antique mirror that was made in northern France in the 1880s. The mirror frame has upper rounded corners typical for the Louis Philippe style. The most elevated part of the frame features a delicate engraved geometric cross pattern and a classic pearl beading surrounds the glass. The mirror frame has a two-tone partially pale gold finish. The outer mold and the most elevated part have an almost black undercoat and the silver leaf was polished to obtain a metallic gloss. The gold color was made by applying a yellow patina over silver leaf gilding. The rest of the frame has a sap green undercoat, with yellow / gold painted patina over it. Throughout the years, the silver leaf has faded a little and the frame has built up a great patina and age-appropriate wear. The mirror plate is authentic as well as the pine back cladding. The mirror plate is silver nitrate silvered and shows beautiful wear across the plate. The mirror is in great antique condition and has an exceptional and rare natural gold color. The mirror plate was removed from the frame and the whole piece was gently cleaned. The mirror is now clean, solid, and ready for use.

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...
