Antique Venetian 17th Century Rare Find Mirror
About the Item
An absolutely unique extremely rare find, this Baroque early 17th century mirror is a museums piece and a real treasure for a true history lover. Exquisitely hand crafted and hand painted under the glass, this mirror is a piece of art which was magically found in the basement of a Venetian Palazzo.
The glass itlsef did not survive the centuries but the wooden structure and glass panels in each corner and on the top are in a good condition considering the age and use.
On the second picture one can see the missing piece of glass (which was added on the other pictures) , we left it on purporse to show you what was underneath - more than 300 yeras old small piece of hand written letter. The mystery remains unsolved -who was the writer and to whom the letter was addressed. The only certain thing is that this Mirror is a fabulous example of mastery and craftsmanship of italian masters in 17th century.

17th Century German Barock Carved Mirror
Located in Lymington, GB
A rare German Baroque (Barock) superbly-carved oval mirror.
Early-17th century, circa 1620-1630.
The frame is exquisitely carved. The cresting with two cherubs supporting a cartouche, and seated upon displaying eagles.
The base centred by a grotesque mask typical of this early period. The oval frame is flanked by boldly-carved Barock scrolls and foliate decoration, the inner frame very well carved with egg and dart. Very minor losses entirely consistent with age. Plate later.
