About the Item
Hand-carved in Italy in the 1700’s, this silvered and giltwood parecloses mirror has a large sunburst crest. The central sun is surrounded by a stylized circular cloud, with beams of light radiating from beneath it. Flanking the crest is a pair of S-scrolls adorned with curled leaves that sit on top of two caulicole capitals. Both vertical columns beneath the capitals are formed by two stacked side mirrors surrounded by a lobed border. The side mirrors are referred to as pareclose, which are strategically placed to give the mirror a larger reflective surface area.
Each of the canted corners of the rectangular main mirror have been filled with leafy florets arranged in a spiral orientation. A gilded cyma recta molding surrounds the main mirror, offsetting the silvered background nicely. The bottom of the frame has a fluted inset rectangle that is filled with leafy florets flanking a pierced circle. Similar protruding plinths at the bases of the faux columns have similar décor, with fluting and an inset lozenge.
The design of our 18th century silvered and giltwood parecloses mirror is quite unusual, and offers an immediate striking visual appeal. A rather large mirror, it can be installed on the wall of just about any room of the house. It can also be displayed on top of console or side table, resting against the wall.

Large Antique French White Painted Trumeau Boiserie Mirror, Circa 1870
Located in Dallas, TX
Trumeau boiserie mirrors, such as this painted white offering from France, were designed to be placed on a wall in between two windows. The motifs and color palettes of these mirrors would often match the surrounding paneling. Based on the size (seven+ feet tall and over four and a half feet wide), our mirror would have been hung in a large room such as a salon.
The inclusion of a floral latticework with canted upper corners that are topped by volute leaves indicates this mirror is in the style of the Regence Period. Also of note is the large foliate medallion that surmounts the lattice, flanked by C-scrolls that seamlessly transition into floral margents; these are traits of the Rococo style that emerged during the reign of the Regent. The shaped glass pane is surrounded by a border of beading set inside thick, protruding molding adorned with foliage. Our white trumeau mirror...
