About the Item
Late 18th Century French Provincial Louis XVI Neoclassical Carved Giltwood Mirror. Good original condition and has very nice proportions. France, circa 1790.
47" H 44" W
This refined and richly detailed giltwood mirror exemplifies the neoclassical sensibilities of the late 18th century, with its hand-carved frame adorned by high relief with laurel leaves, berry clusters, and ribbon-tied motifs- hallmarks of the Louis XVI style.
The gilt surface remains entirely original, exhibiting a time-softened patina that enhances the depth and character of the carving. The mirror features its original segmented mercury glass panels, joined with hand-forged iron rosettes and leaded seams, displaying desirable foxing and silvering appropriate to its age.
Presented in untouched, original condition, this piece offers remarkable historical integrity! The combination of restrained ornamentation, classical form, and aged surface makes it a striking yet quietly elegant focal point- well-suited to both period interiors and sophisticated modern settings.
Giltwood Mirrors have long been a symbol of luxury and craftsmanship. The Neoclassical Period brought a more calm symmetrical aesthetic with restrained, classical motifs inspired by Ancient Greece and Rome. Today, giltwood mirrors are prized for their historical significance and craftsmanship. They are heirlooms and statement pieces that add a touch of timeless elegance to contemporary interiors.
Enhance your home with this unique piece, embodying the timeless beauty and sophistication of Late 18th-century French design!
