English Regency Egyptian Revival Black and Gold Overmantel Mirror

About the Item

An English Regency neoclassical Egyptian Revival overmantel mirror, ebonized and parcel-gilt, of rectangular form, with pilasters on each side with gilded pharaoh's heads and feet, flanking black and gold reverse painted glass panels and with gilded carved and applied Egyptian motifs on the top and bottom bands of the frame, with its early mirror plate intact. A wonderfully graphic and unusual Regency overmantel mirror. Last photo shows the mirror in the distinguished Washington DC residence which was its most recent home.
