French Empire Mirror in Cuban Mahogany, Swans in Bronze D'Ore Ormolu, circa 1815
About the Item
A very beautiful Empire mirror in fine West Indies/ Cuban mahogany with satinwood inlaid bandings. The book-matched figured mahogany draws the eye upward to the stepped pediment that graces the top of the mirror. Fine mounts of bronze d’ore ormolu with swans straddling flower-filled urns decorate the middle corners and bottom center half. France, circa 1815. The swan symbolizes grace & beauty, and is associated with love, music, & poetry. In Roman mythology the swan was sacred to Venus, the goddess of love & beauty. Empress Josephine was so fond of swans, she adopted them as her emblem adorning her house (Château Malmaison), her furnishings & porcelain with it.
