Description from the seller
Louis XVI-style Mirror
Antique design · Ionic columns · French classical ornamentation
This mirror presents an aesthetic fully inspired by the Louis XVI style, characterized by a return to classicism, symmetry, and refined sobriety. The piece blends straight lines with architectural details that evoke the elegance of French taste from the late 18th century.
✦ Distinctive elements
• Side Ionic columns
On both sides of the frame rise Ionic columns, recognizable by their volute capitals and fluted shafts. These elements add verticality and an architectural air typical of French neoclassicism.
• Carved wooden frame
The frame is worked in wood with delicate carving, especially visible in the upper corners, where ornamental motifs typical of the style appear: garlands, stylized leaves, or small geometric moldings.
• Balanced proportions
The mirror’s structure maintains the symmetry and harmony that define the Louis XVI style, with a design that blends sobriety and ornamentation without excess.
✦ Decorative presence
This mirror is a piece that adds distinction and brightness to any room. Its classic language makes it ideal for elegant interiors, from living rooms and entryways to bedrooms with a historic touch. The combination of Ionic columns and fine carving makes it a striking decorative object with great character.
Certificate shipping and good packaging.
