AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant Baroque-style table or wall mirror.
Refined decorative mirror characterized by a sumptuous forged metal frame (antiqued brass), richly worked with classical ornamental motifs. The piece stands out for the high quality of the reliefs and for the decorative taste typical of the Baroque/Rococo period.
The frame is adorned with elegant volutes, acanthus leaves, and pierced floral decorations that frame the glass with utmost grace.
It features a majestic upper central crest and a symmetrical decoration at the base that serves as an ornamental pedestal.
A beautiful original dark patina with delicate golden highlights, giving the object an antique and authoritative appearance.
Equipped with side and rear hooks for mounting either vertically or horizontally on the wall, it can also be used as a table-top mirror on a console or vanity.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The metal framework is intact and free of breaks; the reflective glass is well preserved with minimal signs of aging that confirm its era.
