AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oval vanity mirror in the Louis XV Style – Worked Brass – Mid-20th Century
This refined oval mirror represents a classic example of neo-rococo taste, ideal for enriching spaces with elegant, timeless design. The frame is made of brass with a patinated finish that enhances its sculptural details.

The frame is embellished with a richly worked crest featuring shell motifs (rocaille) and floral scrolls that intertwine harmoniously, as visible in the provided image. The decoration is mirrored at the bottom, creating a perfectly balanced visual equilibrium. The thin edge and the slender shape make it suitable for entrances, bedrooms, or above a console.

Main features:

Material: Patinated brass.

Style: Louis XV / Rococo.

Conditions: The item is presented in good vintage condition; the structure is solid and the mirror glass shows no evident defects except a very small chip on the right side of the mirror adjacent to the frame, which has a slight external deformation.

A piece of furniture of great charm that bears witness to the artisanal care in metalwork of the last century.

Dimensions:

Height: 90 cm
Maximum width: 50 cm
Depth: 5 cm
Weight: 8.3 kg
