About the Item

A compact yet visually impactful example of French Tramp Art, this mirror dates to around 1900 and features a deeply carved frame with the signature layered notching technique. The frame steps outward at the corners in dramatic “cross” projections, lending it architectural presence despite its modest size. Sharp pyramidal carving enlivens each section of the border, including overlapping central diamonds that provide added visual rhythm. Hand-cut from reclaimed wood, the frame has a dark, oxidized patina with subtle reddish undertones. The mirror plate is consistent with period glass and shows minor wear appropriate to age. With its symmetrical form and precise geometric relief, this piece is both rustic and disciplined—typical of French interpretations of Tramp Art, which tend to emphasize refinement over exuberance. Ideal for adding character to an entryway, powder room, or hung within a larger salon-style wall. The back panel appears to be original, however, the hanging hardware is more modern.
