About the Item

One of a kind table mirror by world famous Parisian makers and master carvers. This table mirror was all handcrafted by the world famous Guéret Frères. This firm was founded in 1853 and continued in production until the end of the 19th century. From 1855 onwards Guéret Frères exhibited regularly at the great international exhibitions and often won medals. It was particularly noted for its carved furniture and with pieces held in the collections of some of the most prominent museums in the world their superior craftsmanship is still recognized today. The Victoria and Albert Museum in London have a cabinet from the exact same period as this stunning mirror. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York owns a stunning antique clock that was designed by Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse (French). This clock comes with a mechanism by Cartier and it too was all hand carved by Guéret Frères. Apart from a few minor imperfections this practical, very beautiful and one of a kind antique is in excellent condition.
