About

This ornate and elegant carved wall mirror was crafted in Italy, circa 1780. Five feet tall, the antique mirror features an ornate, gilded frame with intricate Rococo-style carvings. The frame is adorned with scrolling acanthus leaves, floral motifs, and decorative flourishes, adding a sense of opulence and elegance. The mercury glass itself, slightly aged with a subtle patina, reflects the passage of time, enhancing its vintage charm. The top of the frame is accentuated by a graceful crest, further emphasizing its elaborate design. Likely dating from the late 18th century, this mirror would have served as a decorative focal point in a grand room, embodying the luxurious aesthetic of its era. The narrow and tall Louis XV mirror with its original wood backing is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, and adorns a rich gilt patinated finish. It would make a beautiful addition between two windows in a living room or entryway, or used in a master closet. Measures: 22″ W x 60″ H.
