Mayerhofer & Klinkosch - Specchio da tavolo - Vienna 1850
Late Biedermeier table mirror, Vienna, circa 1850.
The silver frame is decorated on all four sides with finely executed vegetal ornamentation.
Maker: Mayerhofer & Klinkosch, one of Vienna’s most renowned silversmith workshops,
which shortly thereafter became official purveyors to the Imperial and Royal Court.
The piece embodies the characteristic features of late Biedermeier design:
a restrained, balanced form enriched with elegant yet measured ornamentation.
This subtle refinement reflects the bourgeois taste of the period,
where practical functionality was combined with high artistic quality.
The decoration also foreshadows the growing inclination towards historicist styles
that became prominent in the second half of the 19th century.
Fully hallmarked, silver fineness 13 Loth (812,5/1000).
Dimensions: 35 × 27 cm, weight 1540 grams.
The exceptional weight and meticulous craftsmanship elevate the mirror to a representative masterpiece of its era, serving not only as a functional object but also as a symbol of social prestige.
