A wooden wall mirror in the cornucopia style from France, dating to the 1960s–1970s, with external dimensions 57 cm high by 31 cm wide and internal 20 by 14 cm, featuring Rococo-inspired carving in green with gold accents and a decorative, non‑functional mirror.
Description from the seller
This cornucopia-style mirror, dated to the second half of the 20th century, features a decorative reinterpretation inspired by 18th-century baroque models. Its frame, made of carved wood or molded resin (depending on the manufacturing process), displays a rich symmetrical ornamentation with scrolls, floral motifs, and vegetal elements that evoke the abundance characteristic of the cornucopia style.
Highlighted features
Design: Vertical composition with a top finish in the form of a plume or crest, and a base decorated with mirror motifs of the crown.
Ornamentation: Rococo-inspired carvings with scrolls, acanthus leaves, and flowers, distributed in a balanced way.
Coloration: Polychromy in dark green with gold accents, which emphasize the relief and add a regal air.
Mirror: Small-sized, centered in the frame, designed more as a decorative element than a functional one.
Period: second half of the 20th century, probably mass-produced for the European decorative market, with historicist references.
This type of mirror was very popular in classical and eclectic settings, used as an accent piece in hallways, living rooms, or bedrooms. Although it is not an antique in the strict sense, its baroque aesthetic and careful craftsmanship make it a decorative object with character and presence.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
