About the Item

A charming French giltwood mirror in the Louis XVI style, dating to circa 1920–1930, featuring a finely carved neoclassical crest with crossed flutes, floral scrollwork, and laurel branches. The central rosette anchors the symmetrical upper motif, while side pendants, tassels, and notched corner blocks continue the classical vocabulary across the frame. The original gilt finish is paired with green-painted wood on the sides and feet—an unusual and playful color contrast that enlivens the traditional form. The mirror glass displays minor age-appropriate speckling and surface wear, enhancing its antique authenticity. Carved detailing remains sharp and expressive, suggesting a high level of craftsmanship and a nod to late 18th-century French design reinterpreted for the early 20th-century decorative market. Measuring approximately 14.75 inches wide by 1.5 inches deep and 28 inches high, this mirror is ideal for a powder room, bedroom, or entryway. Its combination of classical ornament and colorful character makes it a versatile accent for interiors ranging from traditional to eclectic.
