About the Item

Appealing Austrian gilt wall mirror from the famous Biedermeier period around 1830. The wide, deeply grooved frame (partly carved, partly stucco works) was covered with amazing looking "stream gold" and impresses with traditional so-called "Bull´s Eye" motives and additional delicate stripes with little spheres on the inside. On some spots slight abrasions of the gold brought out the red "bolus" - the primer for gilding - which confers this nearly 200 year old, antique Biedermeier mirror a really noble appearance. The backside is closed with brown paper and the solid hand forged ring makes wall mounting easy and safe. A true gem of a gilt 19th century Biedermeier wall mirror in perfect size - coming in great original condition - only the mirror plate had to be renewed during the restoration/ cleaning process.

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...
