AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large antique gilded mirror in Louis XVI style – Floral decor – 115 × 70 cm
Magnificent and imposing antique mirror in Louis XVI style, probably from the late 19th century or early 20th century (around 1880–1920), featuring a superb richly ornamented gilded frame.
This mirror stands out for its elegant relief floral surround, composed of rose bouquets, delicately worked foliage, and vegetal garlands decorating the four corners.
A fine beaded frieze emphasizes the interior of the frame and gives the whole a particularly refined finish.
Its gilded wooden frame, adorned with ornaments probably made in stucco or composition, presents a beautiful old patina that gives it a lot of character and authenticity.
The back of the mirror is particularly interesting: it is entirely made up of old wooden boards assembled and fixed with nails, a testament to traditional craftsmanship.
It is a large and particularly heavy piece, ideally requiring two people to handle it.
