Large 18th Century Italian Faux Painted Mantel Mirror

About the Item

A spectacular large scale 18th century (possibly older) Italian mirror with original hand painted faux marbling and gilding.

Most likely originally designed as a mantel mirror suitable for an Italian villa.

18th Century, Venetian Baroque Carved Giltwood Mirror
Located in IT
18th Century, Venetian Baroque Carved Giltwood mirror This mirror was made in Venice, Italy, in the second half of the 18th century. The frame, in carved and gilded wood, has the characteristics of the Venetian baroque. The internal wooden band, with 90-degree angles in the lower portion and with a cambered and curvilinear profile in the upper part, is carved in vegetable-shaped bas-reliefs. At the top a rich cymatium encloses another mirror. Rich perforated volutes, rocaille and phytomorphic elements, create movement to the whole and streamline the mirror making it graceful. To crown, there is a floral element. Also, below the frame includes a small mirror, while on the sides continue the friezes carved with flowers, leaves and scrolls rocaille. This small mirror, very refined and of great decorative effect, can be easily placed in different environments, placed over consoles or antique drawers...
