Description from the seller

Rococo-style oval carved and gilded wall mirror – Italy, mid-20th century

Elegant oval wall mirror crafted in finely carved and gilded wood, featuring an elaborate openwork frame adorned with rocaille scrolls, foliate motifs and stylised shells. The design reflects the refined decorative tradition of Italian Rococo-inspired furnishings and mid-20th-century craftsmanship.

The frame displays an attractive age-related patina that enhances both the gilding and the depth of the carving. Decorative and visually striking, this mirror is perfectly suited to classical, eclectic or period-inspired interiors.

The reverse retains period labels and handwritten inventory markings, adding further character and authenticity. The piece shows expected signs of age and use, consistent with its history and clearly visible in the photographs.

Good overall condition. Minor wear, small losses to the gilding and age-related marks. Structurally sound with stable mirror plate.
