About the Item

This French Empire mirror (c. 1800) is symmetrical to hang in either direction, exhibiting low-relief floral decorations that leave ample space for the gilt molding to reveal its red bole underneath the gold–adding warmth and texture to the rectilinear design. The molding is largely plain and smooth, with rococo theme garlands of botanical and scallop shell motif stationed at the corners and midpoints along the perimeter. The original mirror plate reflects a fine dusting of crystals among the foxing, which draws the viewer in for a closer look. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition.
