Georgian Mahogany Bowfront Dressing Table Mirror

About the Item

A Very Good Quality Late 18th Century, Sheraton Period, Georgian Bowfronted Mahogany Dressing Table Mirror, With Original Oval Swing Mirror Plate, Over Well Figured Bow Base With Three Drawers, Inlaid Decoration And Original Shaped Bracket Feet. Often referred to as “toilet mirrors”, dressing table mirrors were made from the beginning of the 18th Century onwards. Designed to sit atop a dressing table, or chest of drawers, in the bedroom or dressing room they are found in a huge variety of sizes, woods, shapes, sizes and qualities. This is a nice example, George III and constructed from attractive well figured mahogany timbers which retain a good colour and surface. It is also bowfronted in shape which adds great elegance. Although originally designed to sit on top of a dressing table it is of course most versatile and would suit a whole variety of locations around the home. The mirror plate is almost certainly original and remains in good condition with just a few areas of pitting, or silvering, as one would expect. These areas have been highlighted in the attached images and of course should one wish to change the mirror plate for a new more perfect one this can be carried out relatively inexpensively. The current old plate is very much still fit for purpose however. Overall the item is in very good condition and has received a natural wax polish by our restorers before being offered for sale. Circa 1790. Height – 24.25in. Width – 17in. Depth – 8.25in.
