18th Century Rococo Mirror in Glass And Gilded Gesso Ireland Circa 1740

About the Item

18th century Irish looking glass made with gilded gesso and glass moldings. It is a highly unusual and rare fine. The majority of these mirrors never survived the test of time but this one did. Although the front inset looks like black ebony it is indeed Green Glass. As is the inset on the side. The mirror pain is original as well and an excellent vintage condition. These mirrors are super rare once again as so few of them survive and would be an excellent addition to any incredible interior of a collector. All parts are original including the back.
