About the Item

Eye-catching gilt florentine wall mirror out of Italy dating back to the end of the 19th century around 1890. The large, outstanding looking, open worked frame is ornamented by elaborately handcarved acanthus leaf motifs, confering the piece a sense of luxury mixed with a calming feel of nature as well. Extraordinary shaped lines combined with an artfully made top showing a large weeping acanthus leaf in the center, deserves this antique wall mirror a real unique appearance. This gilt florentine mirror still keeps the original mirror plate by showing a nice facet cut. A real decorative piece of a 19th century gilt Italian wall mirror from the late 19th century - ready for wall mounting with hand forged rings on the back.

Late 18th Century Gilt Baroque Wall Mirror, Handcarved - Italy ca. 1790
Located in Lichtenberg, AT
Elegant 18th century gilt wall mirror from the late baroque period around 1790 in Italy. The artfully handcarved, partly open worked frame shows a lovely gold leaf plated surface and is adorned by elaborately carved floral motives, covered by an amazing looking patina. The highlight builds the large, slightly forward tilted top carving. Red shimmering spots that shine through the slightly abrased surface are caused by the so-called "bolus", the substrate/ ground for gilding and confer this late baroque wall mirror an extravagant and luxurious appearance at the same time. The backside is closed with an old card board and a metal ring makes wall mounting easy. An extraordinary shaped, elegant over 230 years old antique wall mirror...
