Ancient wall shelf with mirror and candle holders – Carved and gilded wood – Italy, mid-20th century

A suggestive decorative wall shelf in a classical taste, made of carved wood and finished with antique gilding, enhanced by a central shaped mirror and two metal candle holders with elegant scrolls.
The ensemble evokes Rococo/Louis XV style, characterized by rich ornamental scroll motifs, vegetal elements and sinuous lines.
The upper shelf allows the display of small decorative objects, figurines, clocks or vases, making the piece ideal for entryways, living rooms or bedrooms.
The central mirror adds depth to the whole, while the two candle holders give a strong dramatic impact, typical of Italian classical furniture of the twentieth century.
It shows normal signs of aging, slight wear to the gilding and small surface abrasions that attest to its authenticity.
The mirror is original and shows slight age-related marks.
The structure is stable and ready to be hung.
