Description from the seller
ANTIQUE DECORATIVE MIRROR – ROCOCO STYLE
Carved, sculpted and gilded frame – Elegant antique décor piece
PREMIUM DESCRIPTION – ITALIAN
Splendid wall mirror from antique style, with a strong decorative impact, characterized by a sumptuous carved and sculpted frame, adorned with refined decoration in ivory, cream, gold and delicate pastel tones.
The frame composition is extremely rich and scenographic. The upper part is dominated by a prominent three-dimensional floral crest, composed of flowers, leaves and botanical motifs sculpted. On the sides sit elegant volutes, curls, shells and rocaille motifs, while the lower part presents a large curved decoration converging toward an elaborate central element.
The entire frame surface is embellished with a distinctive crackle finish, with a network of fine cracks in the finish that testify to the passage of time and give the piece an authentic lived-in and antique look. Traces of gilding, color variations and small abrasions further contribute to its vintage aesthetic.
The mirror features a large rectangular pane with a shaped profile, set into the frame. The reflective surface retains a pleasant antique appearance, with slight alterations, marks and variations in reflection due to age, particularly evident in some areas.
The result is a mirror with a strong decorative character, capable of becoming the focal point of a refined and sophisticated environment.
