AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large monumental French Art Deco wall mirror, in a metal decorated brass frame, with partly hammered and partly flat-finished abstract ornaments with light relief.
The original mirror glass has a faceted edge all around, with some indentations at the top.
The upper edge of the mirror shows a number of weathering spots (see photos).
In the very top left corner there is a small lightly sanded spot in the upper edge, where there once was a small damage to the mirror glass. Given the neat retouching and the small size, this is hardly disturbing and only visible when inspected up close.
Otherwise the mirror is in excellent original condition. The back is covered with a wooden board, later partly filled with putty.
The original hanging apparatus in the form of a chain is still present.
All in all an imposing and very characteristic Art Deco mirror in original condition, with substantial dimensions and a distinctive and relatively rare and heavy surround.
Because of its size (85.5 cm by 52.5 cm), the fragility and the weight (8 kilograms), pickup of the mirror in Alkmaar (the Netherlands) is required.
