Wall mirror - Wood - Antique Mirror

Splendid and elegant rectangular mirror dating from the second half of the 19th century (late Louis-Philippe/Charles X period), characterized by an extraordinary patina of time and a strong decorative impact. The glass plate is authentic to the era and presents the typical and captivating phenomenon of “foxing” (natural oxidation of silver/mercury), with suggestive dark and amber tones that certify its originality and its high interior decorative value for design interiors. The wooden frame features an antique silvered finish with beautiful surface wear and a warm patina, which allows a glimpse of the underlying preparation in some spots, giving it a unique character. The back of the piece attests to its total integrity and historicity: the rear closing board is original, inserted within the frame rebate and fixed with the characteristic handmade, time-oxidized tack nails. The corner joints and the wood’s state of preservation confirm an artisanal 19th-century craftsmanship. A piece of great charm, ideal for both classic settings and contrasts in modern, industrial, or retro interiors.

Good overall structural condition. It presents magnificent wear on the frame and historical oxidation stains on the glazing that do not compromise its stability, but rather enhance its authenticity and antique charm.
