Item Description
This elegant late 18th-century French giltwood mirror is decorated in the Louis XVI style, showcasing a striking double-handled urn crest flanked by flowing garlands of flowers and foliage. The rectangular mirror plate is framed by a delicate beaded border and geometric ornaments, accented with classical foliate motifs and distinctive acorn finials at the base. The beautifully aged giltwood surface retains a rich patina, creating a particularly attractive contrast with the deep background of the crest. A well-proportioned example of late 18th-century craftsmanship, this rare Louis XVI mirror stands out with its bold décor, making it a sophisticated statement piece.
