AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant Neapolitan mirror from the second half of the 1700s, entirely carved, inlaid and gilded with gold leaf.

The mirror presents itself as a triumph of carved wood, with a design that develops from bottom to top where one can appreciate its fineness.

The crest is a succession of volutes, rocailles, shell motifs and botanical clusters.

Two feet bearing a rocailles motif contribute to the elegance and refinement of this splendid object.

The mirror is mercury-silvered glass and is contemporaneous with the wooden frame.

Provenance: Naples (1740/50)

General Conditions: Excellent condition

Dimensions: 58x113 cm.

Document: Certificate of Authenticity.

Assistance: We are at your disposal for further clarifications or particular photographs

We wish you a good day.
