Description from the seller

This imposing monumental wooden console mirror, richly carved and gilded, represents a refined example of Neo-Baroque taste, dating to the second half of the 19th century.

The structure is characterized by a sumptuous pierced crest with shell motifs, foliate scrolls, and a central medallion, elements that recall the opulence of furnishings in the Louis XV style. The side uprights are embellished with scrollwork and floral decorations that give the piece a strong scenic impact and timeless elegance.

Size: 150 x 88 x 5 cm

Shipped in a wooden crate or with professional packaging to safeguard the object's integrity.

Collector's item in good condition, signs of aging as shown in the photos, to be examined carefully as an integral part of the description. The gilding shows a natural and fascinating patina, with slight signs of wear that attest to its authenticity. Small cracks and losses on the frame and other marks on the glass as shown in the photos, to be considered as part of the object's age.

Tracked shipping including secure packaging; any duties and customs taxes will be borne by the buyer.
