Grande - Wall mirror - Carved in palmette motif - gilded wood - plaster

Prestigious oval mirror made of gilded, carved wood covered with gesso.
Dramatic and beautiful in appearance and form, it features a substantial profile (9 cm) divided into three main levels.
The four large, raised central friezes stand out, adorned with stylized small leaves featuring a pattern of short vertical and diagonal incisions, resembling elongated leaves or simplified palmettes, arranged in a rhythmic sequence.
Next is a beautiful, smooth intermediate molding, formed by a slightly convex, undecorated band that creates a visual pause and enhances the ornamental bands.
The refined inner dotted/incised band consists of a regular sequence of small oval or “grain-shaped” elements, carved and slightly recessed, arranged in a continuous pattern along the inner edge. In some places, a subtle reddish tone (bole) shows through beneath the gilding, characteristic of traditional preparation.
The outermost section features a very pleasing inward curve that adds depth.

With its harmonious profile and overall consistent, regular design, this mirror is exceptionally elegant and carefully detailed. Its large, multi-level raised profile makes it striking and full of charm.
An “architect of space” that elevates its surroundings with elegance and poetry.
