Regency Carved Wood and Gilt Gesso Pier Glass

About the Item

Regency Giltwood and Gesso Pier Mirror with Intaglio Mirror Plate, England, circa 1815 A fine early 19th century Regency pier glass, English, circa 1815. This elegant mirror features a finely carved and gilded wooden frame with applied gesso decoration, the arched crest intricately adorned with scrollwork and a central classical motif. The original two-part mirror plate includes an upper arch-shaped section with rare intaglio-cut Neo-Classical emblems, a particularly refined detail typical of the period. The frame displays traditional Regency ornamentation, including flowerhead roundels and reeded borders, all retaining much of the original gilt surface with a warm, time-softened patina. Dimensions: Height: 108 cm (42.5 in) Width: 56 cm (22 in) Depth: 4.5 cm (approx.) Condition: Good decorative condition. Expected age-related wear to the gilding and mirror plate. One small section of moulding is missing to the lower edge. Structurally sound and stable, with the original backboards present. Provenance: From a private collection, UK.
