AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant oval wall mirror with a richly ornamented Baroque-style frame. The broad frame is finished in a warm gold tone and features an elaborate relief design with classical Baroque motifs: floral scrollwork, rocaille (C-sweeps), blossoms, and a finely worked decorative piece as a crown at the top center. The inner edge of the frame is adorned with a continuous pearl-stud/wave band, giving the piece additional depth.
The frame is made of wood; the ornaments are of applied gypsum/polyresin in traditional manner. The mirror glass sits flush in the frame and is in good condition. The back side shows a solid construction with a backing board and a mounted metal hook for easy wall mounting.
