Description from the seller
Pair of elegant wall mirrors with two-light appliques (girandoles) in hand-painted multicolored porcelain, dating from the late 19th century in full Neorococo style. The frames feature a richly curved line with volutes, Rocaille motifs and striking floral decorations. Of exceptional commercial value is the presence of the original mercury-backed mirrors, characterized by the charming and authentic bloom of the period.
Size: 62x31x8 cm
The lot presents in generally good condition with normal signs of age and some small chips on the porcelain at the most exposed points, which do not compromise the elegance and rarity of the pair of mirrors.
Good condition, signs of time as shown in the photos, to be examined carefully as an integral part of the description. Widespread surface defects as demonstrated in the photos, missing pieces.
Observe the photos carefully as they are an integral part of the description.
Shipped in a wooden crate or with professional packaging to preserve the object's integrity, depending on the destination country.
Tracked shipping including secure packaging; any duties and customs taxes will be borne by the buyer.
