Mirror - Gilt wood - Oval-shaped

This oval mirror from the twentieth century radiates the serene elegance of objects designed to endure. Its frame, carved from solid wood, is gilded with a gold finish that has aged with dignity, revealing a warm, almost velvety glow that only the passage of time can impart. The gold is not flashy: it is an antique gold, slightly muted, suggesting skilled hands, traditional varnishes, and a refined taste for ornamentation.

On either side of the oval, the carved roses emerge with delicate volume, as if they had been sculpted to capture a moment of life. Their petals, meticulously defined, reveal the romantic sensibility characteristic of the nineteenth century, when nature became a symbol of beauty, intimacy, and sophistication. These flowers are not a mere adornment: they balance the composition, accompany the curve of the frame, and provide a visual rhythm that guides the eye toward the center.

The oval shape, so characteristic of the era, softens the mirror’s presence and gives it an almost poetic air. It is not an object that dominates the room, but one that ennobles it. Its design suggests influences from Isabelline taste and late Rococo: fluid curves, floral ornamentation, and a sense of harmony that avoids excess without sacrificing detail.

Taken together, it is a piece that speaks of another era: interiors lit by oil lamps, furniture made from noble woods, and a concept of beauty in which every object had a soul. A mirror like that not only reflects; it also tells stories.
