Louis XVI Style Ebonized and Silver Gilt Distressed Carved Smoked Glass Mirror

About the Item

Dimensions - H: 44 in W: 36 in D: 1 3/4 in This remarkable 20th-century mirror seamlessly combines the elegance of Directoire design with the refined elements of the Louis XVI style, resulting in a stunning and timeless piece that elevates any space. Expertly crafted, this rectangular mirror boasts a finely ebonized wooden frame, which exudes sophistication and pairs beautifully with the opulent silver gilt accents that highlight its delicate, yet striking carved details. The frame showcases a harmonious blend of classical motifs, including fluted columns, and intricate carvings, all meticulously executed to evoke the elegance of Louis XVI and Directoire periods. These carved elements are complemented by a subtle distressed finish, which enhances the piece's vintage charm, allowing the mirror to maintain a sense of authenticity and timeworn grace. The distressed silver gilt accents add a layer of refinement and depth, catching the light with a soft, lustrous sheen that contrasts beautifully with the deep, dark ebonized finish of the wood. At the heart of this piece is the smoke glass mirror, which features a unique, slightly tinted surface. This provides a gentle, almost ethereal reflection, imbuing any room with an air of warmth and sophistication. The soft tint of the glass is not only visually striking but also contributes to the overall antique aesthetic of the piece, offering a subtle and refined alternative to traditional clear mirrors. Whether hung above a mantel, incorporated into a gallery wall, or placed as a striking focal point, this Directoire Louis XVI style mirror exudes timeless elegance. Its ebonized wood, silver gilt detailing, and smoke glass mirror offer a sophisticated contrast of materials, making it an ideal addition to any home seeking a balance of luxury, history, and refined beauty. The mirror is in good vintage condition with the exception of some light surface scratches to the frame as well as some minor finish loss and a distressed finish. Otherwise good condition considering age. If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to reach out and ask! - D&P Luxuries
